  • How to stay safe on Goat Tea

    Only join schools that you currently attend

    Schools are provided to help friends find each other. When you join a school that isn’t yours, people who don’t know you can request to be friends with you. Never join a school that you don&apost attend.

    Only send or accept friend requests from people who you know in real life

    Goat Tea is an app to compliment friends that you know. Adding strangers will allow people who don’t know you to vote on you.

    Do not friend requests from strangers

    Goat Tea is an app to compliment friends that you know. Adding strangers will allow people who don’t know you to vote on you.

    Do not share phone numbers, devices, or codes with friends

    Sharing phones or your phone number can cause your account to be compromised or your user data to be corrupted.

    Disable Location Access after signing up

    Goat Tea does not need your location after signing up. We only use it to find nearby schools to join.

    Disabling it will not impact your experience. To disable, open settings › select Goat Tea › Set Locations to Never

    How to keep friends safe

    Do not sign up under someone else’s name

    Goat Tea works best when the names you see in polls are the people who they say they are. If you sign up with a fake name, it hurts our community.

    Do not use inappropriate profile photos

    Your profile photo should represent you. While it doesn’t need to be a photo of you, you should never provide a photo that contains graphic or hateful images.
