Wanees

Safety on Wanees

Wanees is made for meeting people in real life. Most meetups are simply good company, and a few habits help keep them that way.

Before and during a meetup

  • Meet in public. Choose a café, a court or a busy walking track. Plans on Wanees can only be at public places, and home addresses are blocked.
  • Use partner Spots. Wanees Spots are public venues that know Wanees, with staff around and check-in by a code on the table.
  • Tell a friend with Share my plan. Send the place, the time and who is going to someone you trust. You can also share every plan automatically with one trusted contact.
  • Keep chats on Wanees until you are comfortable. If someone rushes you to another app, asks for money or pushes for personal details, treat it as a warning sign. The app will gently remind you when it notices.
  • Arrange your own transport and keep your phone charged.
  • Trust your instincts. You can leave a plan or a room at any time, with no explanation needed.
  • Report and block. If someone makes you uncomfortable, report them from their profile, a chat, a plan or a room, and block them. Blocking takes effect immediately.

What we do to keep you safe

  • Verification. Every account is tied to one mobile number, and the blue verified badge means the Wanees team has reviewed and verified the profile.
  • Women-only options. Hosts can make plans and Majlis rooms women only, and Show me lets you choose who appears in your Discover deck.
  • Rough distance only. Other members see a distance band such as "1-3 km", never your location or address.
  • Moderation. Photos are checked before they go live, AI tools help spot harmful content, and our team reviews reports, handling the most serious first.
  • Real consequences. People who break our rules lose access to Wanees, and we work with the authorities when the law requires it.

In an emergency

If you are in danger, call 911, the unified emergency number in Saudi Arabia. When you are safe, tell us at support@getwanees.com so we can act on the account.

Community rules

Everyone on Wanees agrees to our community rules: be respectful, no harassment, no sexual content, no requests for money, no sharing other people's information, meet in public places and follow Saudi laws and public decency. Read them in full in our Terms of Use.
