About Ghost Mode

Ghost Mode is a privacy feature that lets you use BeMatrx without being visible to other community members. When Ghost Mode is on:

• Your online status is hidden from others
• Your location in the world is hidden
• Other community members cannot see if you're at a venue
• You cannot see other community members' online status either (it works both ways)
• You cannot like, comment, follow, or post Moments and Flashes
• You cannot post your own new Moments or Flashes either

When to use Ghost Mode

Ghost Mode is helpful when you want to:

• Take a privacy break
• Use BeMatrx without being contacted
• Explore the app without appearing active to your followers

How to enable Ghost Mode

1. Open the Settings menu.
2. Go to Privacy.
3. Tap Ghost Mode.
4. Toggle the switch on.

You'll see a confirmation that Ghost Mode is active.

What Ghost Mode does NOT do

• Does not hide your profile (others can still visit your profile page)
• Does not switch messaging off — others can still message you, you see those messages straight away, and you can keep replying in conversations you already have
• Does not delete your presence history
• Does not affect Moments and Flashes already posted

What Ghost Mode DOES do

• Hides your online status from others
• Hides your world location and venue presence
• Pauses your action feed in the world
• Stops you starting a brand-new conversation — you can still message anyone you have messaged before
• Reciprocally — you also can't see others' online status or world activity

How long it lasts

When you enable Ghost Mode, it stays on for a minimum of 1 hour. After you turn it off, there is a 12-hour cooldown before you can re-enable. The app shows you the exact timing when you toggle the setting.
