Quick Tips
- Restrict messaging in Tumblr on Desktop from Settings > Tumblr blog > Messaging, and toggle on ‘Only allow messages from Tumblrs you follow’.
- Open your Account settings in the Tumblr app, select Messaging, and enable ‘Only Tumblrs you follow can message’ to avoid getting messages from random accounts.
Restrict or Disable Messaging on Tumblr
If you’re tired of getting constant message notifications on Tumblr, disabling the Instant Messaging feature becomes reasonable. Sadly, there’s no native setting to completely turn it off. However, you can restrict the number of received messages to only blogs and people you follow — translating to turning off instant messaging.
Once restricted, you can only receive messages from Tumblrs you follow and no followers or random visitors should be able to message you (unless you’ve chatted with them previously). Follow these steps to enable it on your desktop and smartphone:
On Desktop
Step 1: Access Tumblr in a new tab on your browser and select Settings from the left sidebar.
Step 2: Select your desired Tumblr blog to configure its preferences.
Step 3: Scroll down to Messaging and turn on its toggle to restrict messaging from accounts you don’t follow on Tumblr.
On Phone
Step 1: Open the Tumblr app, select the Account icon at the bottom right, and tap the Gear icon.
Step 2: Select Account settings and tap Messaging.
Step 3: Select your Tumblr blog and enable Only Tumblrs you follow can message to restrict Instant messaging on the platform.
