What Dilly turns away
Dilly turns away rude words and hateful words. It also turns away phone numbers, email addresses, web links and street addresses. Names that pretend to be staff or a teacher are turned away too.
If a name is refused, the app says so, and your child can try another.
A good nickname
Something friendly and private. Please do not use a real last name, phone number or address.
Where it shows
