Why did one or more of my matches disappear?
A match will last indefinitely (moving to your archived section if the conversation stops) as long as neither party ends it. However, a match can disappear for several reasons:
- The person you matched with deliberately unmatched you.
- The person you matched with accidentally unmatched you.
- You accidentally unmatched with them.
- The person you matched with deleted their account.
- The person you matched with was banned or suspended, which results in the match being removed.
- You have signed into the wrong Ark account.
Each login method (Phone Number or Apple) creates a unique account, and it's not uncommon for people to accidentally create a second account. If you think you may be signed into the wrong Ark account, go to Account > Settings > Log Out to return to the login screen. From there, try different login methods to find the correct account.
*Please note that an unmatch is irreversible, even if it was accidental.
