  4. Under Privacy, turn Private profile on or off.

Good to Know

  • A name is 2 to 40 characters. First name and initial, such as "Kofi M.", is how most people appear. Leave out numbers, addresses and links.
  • A new name shows on every review you've written.
  • A private profile shows only your name, the month you joined and how many reviews you've written. Your reviews still appear on each place's page under your name.
  • Reviews of clinics, schools and places of worship never appear on your public profile, and some show your initials only.
  • Agoo keeps your phone number and email address to itself. No business ever sees them.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • Save name stays greyed out. The name is the same as the one you have now. Change it first.
  • Your name was refused. Take out numbers, addresses, links or anything that isn't a name, and try again.
