Contact us at moderation@kahoot.it to ask that we re-review your kahoot. Please include your username and the title of the kahoot in your message.
- If you feel your kahoot was flagged or quarantined in error, let us know and we’ll happily investigate. Please keep your kahoot public, it is very important, because if you make it private, we won’t be able to see or review your game.
- If you do not want to change anything in your game and still be able to host and share it with your friends, change your kahoot’s visibility to “Only me”. It will automatically release your game from moderation.
- If you’ve saved edits and believe your kahoot now aligns with our Terms and Conditions, just send us notice. We’ll either approve it or let you know if anything else needs to be addressed.
Only public content (saved as “Visible to: Everyone”) is subject to moderation. We have three methods of moderation in place:
- AI scans for inappropriate content
NOTE: The context is not taken into consideration - when flagged by our AI system it is possible that your kahoot is appropriate if reviewed in context. So no worries! We will look into it once you contact us at moderation@kahoot.it.
- Moderators search for inappropriate content
- Users can manually flag inappropriate content
As outlined in our Terms and Conditions, it's the responsibility of every user to ensure that their content is not:
- illegal, threatening, defamatory, abusive, harassing, degrading, intimidating, fraudulent, deceptive, invasive, racist, or contains any type of suggestive, inappropriate, or explicit language
- Infringing on any trademark, patent, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary right of any party
- Containing any type of unauthorized or unsolicited advertising
- Impersonating any person or entity, including any Kahoot! AS employees or representatives
What are the different moderation statuses?
Once flagged, our moderation team will review your kahoot (usually within 24 hours) to determine if it should be quarantined or approved.
- Flagged: You can edit, delete, and play your kahoot. It’s visible to everyone.
- Quarantined: You can only edit or delete your kahoot. It’s visible only to you.
- Approved: You can edit, delete, play and share your kahoot. It’s visible to everyone and cannot be flagged again until after you’ve edited it.

Hi all,
Please contact us at moderation@kahoot.it to ask about your kahoots. We're unable to address these requests via the comments section here.
Please include your username and the kahoot's title.
Our team is usually willing to un-quarantine your kahoot and make "visible to: only you" without you needing to make changes. But kahoots that are visible to everyone can easily be discovered in classroom settings. Schools are often obligated to ensure the appropriateness of content. So we have to be a bit strict on what we allow as "visible to: everyone".
Also, we cannot allow content that condones illegal activity or infringes on the copyright or proprietary rights of any party. Such content would be an example of what we would not un-quarantine.
I've contacted the Kahoot email address and have had no response. This is made for educational purpose and fun. I want it to be made visible to only me, yet that seems impossible. Hopefully someone can actually contact me...

My kahoot has 555 questions why was it flagged!?
yo all i try to do is make my kahoot funny for people to laugh at. why was it quarintened!? that makes me sad b'cause i worked so hard on this. and apparently mine was offensive, racist, abusive. just look at the question & answers nothing was any of that i even made my kahoot A LOT LESS funny.
please get my kahoot to work
My kahoot has been "quarantined due to inappropriate content" and there is nothing on there that is inappropriate in the slightest way, i made the quiz for my horticulture and added a few off topic questions about cars and i would very much appreciate it if u contacted me back or just simply manually check the quiz for any inappropriate content and reapprove it as soon as u see for yourself that i made a perfectly clean kahoot. my username is calebm135 and the quiz is titled fgfjkd because i didnt know what else to name it. please check it as soon as possible because class begins in fifteen minutes.
WHY WAS MY KAHOOT QUARANTINED?
The Cakes and Creams Taste Happy :)))
why was it quarantined, Kahoot bootlickers? Why was it quarantined?
Dear Kahoot Moderators,
My friend's kahoot project just got reported for a non sense reason. You should remove the report because it is completely non sense. It is called "pizda 2". I personally think it shouldn't be reported because I don't really see some inappropriate serious content over there. I think your AIs found the content inappropriate because AIs are not correct. I hope his project won't delete because of a stupid thing that has no sense at all.
Thanks for reading!
Dear Kahoot Moderators,
yes. my kahoot does have some inapropeate (How do you spell inapropeate?) content. you probaly gotta say, i was a pretty stubborn little kid back then and i still am today
you know what,
im sorry
WAS MY KAHOOT QUARANTINED?
That kahoot was just for friends anyway! Why would you delete it?
my Kahoot was for friends, so I don't know why the quarantined, so please let me play it
My Kahoot was quarrinted and I made it for myself to help me study for one of my finals. I am just trying to stay awake and pass a final so I put some funny answers in it to keep me awake and motivated, I would really like to study so I do not fail, but thanks anyways thought that's what kahoots were for.
my kahhot was for me and my friends and we call each other funny names as a joke like we will call each other fat or stupid but its funny and its a joke. Kahoot guidelines are total trash..
I have a 100 question Kahoot! and this basically just shut it down without any warning, and without any option for me to do anything, I can't even private it for just me and my friends, making it so I spent hours making a Kahoot! just for them to throw it away, thanks Kahoot!, really making us proud
mine was removed but it was CYBER BULLYING telling you NOT TO CYBER BULLY i am literally going through a mental breakdown about this
It never happened to any of my kahoots, but it did happen to two of my favorited kahoots, specifically "mario kart" by NJMatMD and "Memes" by majorkeymaria. The mario kart kahoot was probably quarantined because it had a whopping 400 questions, but I don't know about the Memes one. However, the guidelines state nothing about 400-question long kahoots, so I'm confused about both.
How long before they re-review it and overturn a ban after I've edited the "inappropriate" content? I just want to private it and be able to get to using it asap. It's kind of unfortunate that they automatically lock down what I've been working on and my time spent on it becomes basically wasted and unusable.
I don't understand why my Kahoot is quarantined. I think it's a mistake and I like to play with it as soon as possible. Thanks a lot
My kahoot got flagged for no reason let me spokie to nthe manaeghr
