Updated

When someone running a circle invites you by name, you get an invitation, not a membership. Nobody is added to a circle without agreeing. You choose whether to accept.

Where invitations show up

You get a notification when someone invites you. You'll also see the invitation in these places:

  1. Open the invitation

    Tap the notification, or find the circle under My circles.
  2. Have a look first

    You can see the circle's name, what it's for and how many members it has before you decide.
  3. Accept or decline

    Tap Accept or Accept invite to join. Tap No or No thanks to turn it down.

After you accept

You're in straight away, and you can read and write in its groups. You don't wait for approval, because the invitation came from the circle's side.

In an apartment circle, you'll be asked for your door or flat number so your home can vote in polls. See Join questions and your door number. If the circle has rules, you'll be asked to agree to them before you post. See Circle rules and “I agree”.

After you decline

You see Invitation declined. You aren't added, and the person who invited you gets a notification that you declined. If you change your mind, you can find the circle and join or ask to join like anyone else. See Find and join a circle.

Common questions

Can someone add me to a Zinola circle without asking?
No. Nobody is added to a circle without agreeing. You get an invitation, and you're only in once you accept it.
Does the person know if I decline a circle invitation?
Yes. The person who invited you gets a notification saying you declined, and your name comes off the circle's invited list.
I accepted an invitation by mistake. What do I do?
Leave the circle. In the app, tap the circle's name and choose Leave circle. On the website, tap Leave on the circle's page.
