Ask for help
Contact us. We're happy to investigate why your kahoot was flagged and help get it out of moderation. For a quick resolution, please answer the "What is your inquiry about?" question with "Create and share kahoots -> Flagged kahoot". Also, please include your username and the title of the kahoot in your message.
- If 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 “private”. It will automatically release your game from moderation.
- If you’ve updated your kahoot and believe your kahoot now aligns with our Terms and Conditions, simply ask us to re-review your kahoot. We’ll either approve it or let you know if anything still needs to be addressed.

MY RANDOM STUFF KAHOOT QUARANTINED FOR NO REASON BUT IT IS JUST FOR MY FAMILY PLEASE FIX IT BECAUSE I WANNA MAKE THE KAHOOT A 1000 QUESTION QUIZ THEN I WAS GOING TO TRY IT OUT AT 47 BUT THEN IT SAID UH-OH, THIS KAHOOT CAN'T BE PLAYED. IT WAS QUARANTINED BY OUR MODERATION TEAM FOR VIOLATING KAHOOT! TERMS. FIND OUT MORE.
hello. my kahoot got quarantined but i don`t know why could it have been because i had memes in my kahoot?
(sorry for my bad English)
When you block a Kahoot, you really should give a good reason why, and point to where it violates the terms of use or whatever you call it. Giving me an obscure, "Your Kahoot was quarintined, fix it so it complies" helps nothing. Tell me what to fix, or at least let me make it private so I can use it with my friends. That's the only thing I made mine for, memes and inside jokes.
i am making a kahoot with all jokes with my friends and they are on my facetime while i made this so please let me play the dang game. let me talk to your manager
