How to Remove Your Name and Photos from the Tea App (Even If You're Not a Public Figure)
The 2025 Guide to Understanding the Tea App, Its Risks, and How to Protect Your Reputation
Why You’re Here
In mid-2025, a little-known app called Tea exploded in popularity.
Originally pitched as a dating safety platform, it allowed women to anonymously post experiences about men—often with names, photos, and personal details. But after a massive data breach in July exposed over 13,000 private images, everything changed.
Mainstream outlets like CNN and NBC reported on the breach. Reddit and Quora lit up with first-hand accounts. Screenshots leaked. And the platform went from obscure to viral overnight.
The catch? Men often can’t even see what’s being said about them. Tea is a closed, invitation-only app. If someone uploads your photo or name, you might never know—unless someone sends you a screenshot.
What This Means for You
The fallout from Tea isn’t just headlines, it’s personal. Careers, relationships, and reputations have already been damaged. Imagine discovering a screenshot of yourself being passed around group chats, or a colleague hinting they “saw something” but you can’t access it yourself.
What makes Tea different is the powerlessness it creates:
● You don’t know if you’re listed.
● You can’t see what’s being said.
● And by the time you hear about it, the screenshot has usually spread beyond your control.
That’s why removing your name and photos isn’t just about privacy, it’s about protecting your future before one false post snowballs into real-world consequences.
This guide will show you:
● What the Tea App is and how it works
● Why it's such a risk (even if it's not indexed by Google)
● What steps actually work for removal
● And what to do next if you think you're listed
What Is the Tea App?
● A private, female-only app for anonymously reviewing men
● Posts often include names, photos, and unverified claims
● Not indexed by search engines like Google or Bing
● Not accessible by most men, which makes defense nearly impossible
Some users have described it as a kind of "digital burn book"—where anonymous gossip spirals into reputational damage, all behind closed doors.
How The Tea App is Damaging Reputations
● You may be listed and not even know
● You can’t easily view what’s posted
● You can’t publicly respond
● False claims can spread privately, fast
Even if it’s not showing up on Google, it can still affect your job, relationships, or reputation if screenshots start circulating.
What Doesn’t Work
1. Reporting the post – There’s no clear moderation process.
2. Sending a cease-and-desist letter – Legal threats often backfire or escalate the situation.
3. Burying with SEO – Since it’s not public, traditional SEO doesn’t help.
What You Can Do Now to Strengthen a Removal Case
Over the past few months, we’ve worked with dozens of clients impacted by Tea listings—many of whom had no idea they were on the app until screenshots surfaced.
If you believe you're listed, or even suspect it, here’s how to prepare:
Start by Collecting These Details:
● Screenshots of the post(s) mentioning you
● Usernames of those who posted or commented
● Timestamps or approximate dates of the post
● Any direct links (if someone inside the app can access them)
● Descriptions of harm or falsehoods (what’s incorrect, invasive, or defamatory)
● Mentions elsewhere online if applicable (Reddit threads, Discord chats, etc.)
Having this information upfront helps build a faster, stronger case.
What to Do If You Can’t See the Post
If you suspect you’re listed on Tea but have no access and no evidence:
● Don’t panic
● Don’t try to retaliate or confront anyone directly
● Reach out to our team—we can guide you through your options and help investigate discreetly
We’ve helped clients navigate these situations without escalating them—often resolving cases quietly, quickly, and without unnecessary exposure.
