Circles are a way to stay connected to the most important people in your life. Circles allow you to keep an eye on all circle members at any time of the day.
The circle will allow you to have real-time location sharing, manage frequently visited places and receive notifications on arrival or departure, view location history and send/receive alerts from all members within the circle.
The circle admin will decide who is invited and who isn't. We know how important privacy is.

Places are a great way to know when your loved ones are leaving work or just arrived at school. Places are areas you can define so you are alerted when a Circle member enters or leaves a location.
When setting up Places, it is important that two or more Places do not overlap each other. If they do, you will receive inaccurate Place alerts.
