What are expiring photos?

Expiring photos are temporary image shares designed for limited-time viewing, but they still rely on trust and do not eliminate all capture risk.

This article is part of the ASBL SQWEER support center and is connected to the relevant policy, safety and support flows.

What this article covers

Safety reminder

Temporary display is not a guarantee against photos of the screen or external capture.
Do not send sensitive images unless you accept residual risk.
Policy violations remain violations even if the media expires.

Check the FAQ first, then contact support from inside the app or through the web contact form with detailed context.

Update the app, clear web or app cache, verify browser or OS version and capture exact steps before contacting support.

Photos are rejected when they break authenticity, explicit-content, privacy or safety rules.

Moderation is not perfectly simultaneous. Another violating image being visible does not mean your rejected image was acceptable.

Warnings usually mean content or behavior may break policy. Review the message and change the problem before further action is taken.

Keep one primary account and request closure of unused accounts through the account or support flow.
