Local discovery
Location-aware discovery can surface nearby posts, events, and people when you allow it. You can turn location sharing down or off.
What it is
Local discovery helps you find posts, people, groups, events, and news near a place. It can use location signals only when you choose to share them or when content is already tied to a public place.
How to use it
Set your location preference in profile or privacy settings. You can share a broad area instead of precise location.
Open local discovery, maps, nearby suggestions, or place pages to browse activity around an area.
Turn location sharing down or off any time from privacy settings if you do not want local personalization.
Privacy expectations
Do not post someone else's private location without permission. Local discovery is meant for community context, not tracking individuals. Reports involving doxing, threats, stalking, or child safety concerns are reviewed under safety policies.
