## In short

- Every post and Moment goes only to the people you choose.
- Pick everyone in your space, a Circle like Family or Close friends, or one person.
- Change who sees it later from the post's menu. No one is told.

On most apps, a post goes to everyone who follows you. On Philos, nothing goes anywhere until you decide who it's for. That choice is the most important thing you'll do in the app, so here's how it works.

## Open Who sees this?

When you share a post or a Moment, tap **Who sees this?**. You'll see three kinds of choice.

*Only the people you choose. They won't see who else it went to.*

1. **Everyone in your space:** all the people you've added. On Philos that's never more than 49.
2. **A Circle:** a private tag for some of your people, like Family or Close friends. You can tick more than one.
3. **One person:** only they will see it.

Tap **Done**, and that's who sees it. Nobody else can, and nobody can pass it on.

## Change your mind later

You can widen or narrow who sees a post after you've shared it. Open the post's menu and choose **Change who sees it**. Philos lists who gains access and who loses it before you save.

*Check who this affects before you save. No one is told.*

**Good to know**

- Nothing on Philos is public.
- People you share with won't see who else it went to.
- Changing who sees a post doesn't notify anyone.
- Someone you haven't added sees only your name and photo.

## Questions people ask

### Who can see what I share on Philos?

Only the people you pick. For every post and Moment you choose everyone in your space, a Circle like Close friends, or just a few people. Nothing on Philos is public, and someone you haven't added sees only your name and photo.

### Do people know who else I shared a post with?

No. Only the people you choose see it, and they won't see who else it went to.
