Circles and events

A Circle is a room: a group, a feed, and optionally events. Open Circles at /community/circles/ or from Circles in the community app.

Open a Circle

Anyone can open a Circle. How many you can host depends on your plan (Free 1, Pro 3, Icon 6 — the pricing page shows the current numbers). Choose a name, who may join (open, on request, or private), and what the room is for. After the limit, opening another Circle asks you to change plan. On a new Circle, only the host and admins post or add events until the host turns those switches on in settings.

Events

The host, a room admin, or — when the host allows it — a member adds events: a title, a time, and a place or an online link. A meeting address can be pasted without https. The person who created an event can edit or cancel it; hosts and admins can do that for any event in the room. Members of the room can say they are going. An event you are going to can land on your Desk calendar if you have one. Shortly before it starts you can check in — that is a tap, not a location.

Mute

Mute a Circle from its settings or from the room info to stay in the room without seeing its posts in discovery or getting its notifications. You can still open the Circle. An email already on its way is not taken back.

Members

The host and room admins can remove a member. That is not a ban: on an open Circle they can join again. Only the host can remove an admin. The host cannot be removed.

What outsiders see

An open Circle shows the next event and how many people are going. An on-request Circle shows that events are coming; an event-Circle also shows the date and city. A private Circle shows nothing to outsiders. The venue and the guest list stay with members.

Share to the feed

Any member can share an open or on-request Circle, or one of its events, to their feed or as a Scene. Choose On platform or Share outside. A private Circle has no public page to open, so it cannot be shared that way.

Hide

The team can hide a Circle that should not stay listed. Hidden rooms leave every list; they are not deleted. Members, posts and events stay, and the team can reopen the room. Deleting a Circle stays with the host.
