Editor’s letter

Think Instagram, but about your taste, not your face.

Circle lets you make lists of the films you’re into, the music you can’t stop playing, the places you’re dying to go, or all of it together in one list. Share your lists with friends. Browse theirs.

01 — Save anything

The link. The place. The thing someone mentioned.

Save it before you forget. Add a note so you remember who sent it, why it mattered, or who you want to share it with.

For a friend. For a trip. Because you love it.

A weekend away, a friend’s birthday, the films you talk about for days. Bring the good things together, up to thirty in each collection.

Next time we have a free weekend, let’s go here.

03 — Local

Go out. Stay in. Find your kind of evening.

Places, plans, collections, films, and shows, with the people behind every recommendation.

04 — People first

A great recommendation doesn’t need a big following.

Your next favourite could come from a friend, a stranger, or someone with no audience at all.
