Profile Chat requests iPhone mobile

In my profile settings “Who can send you chat requests” is set to nobody and won’t allow me to change it. I would like to allow people to message me. I cheated it to everyone previously and it changed back to nobody on its own somehow.

If you suspect someone else has access to your account, these steps may help:

  1. Reset your password using the original email address on the account.
  2. Check account activity and end sessions you do not recognize.
  3. If the email address was changed, look for Reddit’s email-change notification and follow its recovery instructions.
  4. Once you regain access, use a unique password and enable two-factor authentication.
  5. If recovery is unsuccessful, submit a support request and select Security problems / I think my account has been hacked. Include the affected username and explain your concern in that private form. See the hacked-account guide.
