Ohro Plus is an optional paid tier with extra features such as an ad-free experience and higher profile photo limits. Core dating, chat, and Pulse discovery remain free. See in-app details when Plus is available to you.

Ohro lets you manage profile photos and albums with visibility controls so you decide what to share and with whom. Review photo settings anytime in your profile.

You control photos, albums, and discovery visibility. We design around consent and safety — not around extracting as much personal data as possible. Read the Privacy Policy for full details.

Chat in-app first, meet in a public place, tell a trusted friend your plans, and never share financial details. See our safety tips on the blog and use block and report tools if something feels wrong.

Open their profile or chat, then use block or report from the menu. Blocking stops further contact. Reports help our team review behaviour that breaks our Terms of Service.

T4T means trans-for-trans. If you turn on the T4T badge in your profile Matching settings, you show that you prefer matching with other transgender people. It is optional, does not change your gender identity, and you can turn it off anytime during onboarding or in Edit profile.

When you connect with someone on Pulse, you can message in-app before sharing personal contact details. Keep early conversations on Ohro until you feel comfortable — see our first message ideas for inspiration.

Badges under a name signal different things: Community verified (peers who know the person), Ohro verified (staff), VIP (contributor who invited many real members), Ohro Plus (gold circle with a star — active Plus membership), and Official (the Ohro account in chat). They can stack and are not government ID checks.

Community verified comes from members marking that they know someone personally and meeting peer-vouch thresholds. Ohro verified is granted by Ohro staff. They use different icons and labels so you can tell them apart. Someone can have both.

VIP marks a growth contributor — typically someone with 1,000+ quality invitees who joined with their code and set up a real profile. Ohro can also grant or remove VIP. It is separate from Ohro Plus and does not replace verification badges.

No. Community and Ohro verification are not for sale. VIP is earned through quality invites or granted by Ohro. Ohro Plus is the optional paid membership and shows a separate gold circle with a star icon.
