  1. Tap on the Camera Settings icon of the Camera you wish to leave

Can I customize permissions within the Trust Circle?

Currently, the option to select specific permissions for members within the Trust Circle is not available. We've designed the Trust Circle to simplify sharing and ensure a consistent experience for all users, providing peace of mind and ease of use when monitoring your space together.

Why am I still seeing ads after I'm added to Trust Circle?

If you've been added to a Trust Circle by an owner whose account is upgraded to Premium, you might wonder why you're still seeing ads. The reason lies in the account-specific nature of Premium benefits: if your personal account hasn't been upgraded to Premium, the ad-free experience and other Premium benefits won't apply to you as the Premium privileges are exclusive to the account that has been upgraded to Premium status.

Can Trust Circle members delete my videos?

Trust Circle members do not have the capability to delete any of your videos. This design is intentional, prioritizing your control and security over the footage. As the account holder, you retain exclusive rights to manage (delete or preserve) your videos, ensuring that your privacy and control over your content are uncompromised.
