How to disable message requests on Clubhouse

Open the Clubhouse app and tap on the paper plane icon at the bottom right corner of the screen. This icon is the backchannel option that lets you access messages. 

Tap on the horizontal three dots at the top of the screen.

Finally, tap on Disable Message Requests to stop receiving messages from random users.

You will see that the Requests tab is not visible now. Actually, both the Requests and the Chats tab above are now hidden away by the app as there are only Chats to show.

If you change your mind later on and want to check the message requests again, then you need to bring back the missing Requests tab again.
