Trust & safety

Safety tools, built in

Helpy gives you tools - phone verification, reporting, blocking, content moderation. It does not vet users or run background checks; meeting a neighbor is always your call.

Phone verification

Reaching out to a neighbor, or accepting someone who did, takes a verified phone number.

Report & block

One tap to remove anyone from your view. Blocking is instant and goes both ways.

Private by default

Your exact location is shared only with a neighbor you accept. Until then, people see distance, not your address.

Delete anytime

Delete your account right from the app, anytime. Changed your mind? You have 30 days to restore it.
