Joining a Hobson Circle

How does joining a Circle work?

1. Someone shares their invite link (it looks like gethobson.app/join/XXXX-XXXX).
2. Open the link on your phone. If you have Hobson installed, it opens the app and drops you into the Circle. If not, install Hobson first, then tap the link again.
3. Once you’re in, you can coordinate carpools, activities, and shared schedules with everyone in that Circle.

What’s a Circle for?

Circles keep coordination scoped. You might have one with your partner for the whole household, and another with just the soccer parents for the Tuesday carpool. You choose what each Circle sees. Joining one doesn’t share your whole calendar.

Does joining cost anything?

No. Joining a Circle is part of the free Solo plan, and so are nudges, carpool coordination, and calendar sync. If the person who invited you is on a Household plan, they can add you as one of the people it covers.
