Change your circle's bottom bar

In the app, choose the three places in a circle's bottom bar for yourself, or as an admin set the bar every member starts with.

Updated

In the app, a circle with several groups has a bar along the bottom. Groups is always first, followed by three places you can reach in one tap. You can change those three for yourself.

What can go in it

Unless the admins change it, the bar shows Groups, Board, Saved and Members. Each of the three places can be any one of these:

  • The whole Board
  • one Board tool: Trusted helpers, Help desk, Alert & Timing, Book a space, Important numbers, Circle rules or Start a group buy
  • Saved messages, Members or About this circle

Only tools your circle has are offered. For example, Book a space shows only in apartment circles.

Change your own bar

  1. Open the menu

    Open the circle and tap ⋯ at the top.
  2. Tap Change my bottom bar

    The screen shows a live preview of the bar at the top.
  3. Pick each place

    Tap Place 1, Place 2 or Place 3 and choose what goes there.
  4. Tap Save

    You'll see Bottom bar saved.

Your bar is only for you: Only you see this. The circle's admins choose everyone else's. To go back to the bar the admins set, tap Use the circle's bar.

For admins: set the circle's bar

Admins choose the bar every member starts with. Open the circle, tap the gear to Manage circle, then The circle's bottom bar. Pick the three places and tap Save. Back to the default resets it to Board, Saved and Members.

Members who changed their own bar keep their choice. The first time admins open a circle with a bar, a tip offers Choose to set it up.

Common questions

Why doesn't my circle have a bottom bar?
The bar shows only in the app, and only once a circle has groups beyond General. A circle that's one chat has a Board button at the top instead.
Can I change the bottom bar for everyone in my circle?
Only admins can. They set it from Manage circle › The circle's bottom bar. Members can change their own.
Can I remove Groups from the bottom bar?
No. Groups is always first. You can change the other three places.
