Community Guidelines

Required by Apple's UGC guidelines (App Store Review §1.2). Three-word reviews are public; what you write reflects on you, your partner, and the platform.

What's allowed

• Honest reactions. "absolute trash fire," "cried three times," "we fought after," "door had room." Strong opinions, swearing, sharp humor — fine.
• Casual profanity. Shit, fuck, damn, bullshit, hell, ass — these aren't filtered. UPick is for adults talking like adults about movies.
• Niche taste. Your favorites can be 2 stars to everyone else's 5. The point is your taste, not the average.

What's not allowed

• Slurs. Racial, ethnic, gender-identity, sexual-orientation, religious, or disability-targeted slurs. Auto-blocked.
• Threats or incitement. Including jokes structured as threats. We don't read tone — we read words.
• Sexual content involving minors. Auto-blocked. Reported to NCMEC if detected. Account terminated.
• Doxxing or harassment. Sharing another person's contact info, location, or identity without consent.
• Spam / promotion. URLs, "buy now," referral codes, OnlyFans pitches, crypto bait. Reviews aren't ads.
• Coordinated inauthentic behavior. Sock-puppet accounts, review brigading, vote manipulation.

How moderation works

• Pre-write filter. When you type a three-word review, we check it against the blocklist as you type. Casual swears pass. Slurs and threats trigger an inline error.
• Post-write trigger. Every published review re-runs through the filter server-side. Anything that slipped past gets redacted or removed within seconds.
• Reports. You can report any review or user via the menu. Reports go to a queue and we respond within 48 hours.
• Shadow-ban. Repeat offenders may have their content hidden from other users without notice — visible to them, invisible to the community.
• Hard ban. Reserved for slurs, threats, CSAM, doxxing, or repeated guideline violations after warnings.

Appeals

If your content was removed and you think we got it wrong, email [email protected] with the review text. We re-evaluate every appeal manually.
