create new circle

[kghumpherys]

I'm not clear on this matter. It seems that new circles cannot be created? It would be nice to have a circle for "Temple and Family History"... Is that possible to get that circle by some means?

Making the request via the Feedback link or button on the website or app is the best way to register a request in a way that might make a difference.

I apologize, but are you saying that in order to get a new circle added we must first go through Facebook to request that?

No, the Feedback link, not Facebook. For example, from on the main Church web page at https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng there is a "Feedback" link near the bottom of the page. That link on that page goes here: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/feedback/?lang=eng The link destination might vary.

Thank you for your help

While you can make the request, I wouldn't hold my breath for that to happen. I don't think we've seen a single new circle since the program was introduced.

As a YSAward, it would be great to be able to combine circles/creat new ones i.e. relief society 1 and relief society 2 or for large committees that have more than 10 people! I’ve had multiple people ask if it’s even possible!

It would also be nice to create groups like 14+ so that we can invite just them to activities that are for 14+. I see this message chain is a few years old, is there now a way to create new circle groups?

I agree, for 4 years folks have been asking for one simple function to be added. Can we get an admin response here? I’ve sent in feedback but no changes have happened. I see the app is still supported but not adding the ability to create additional circles seems counter productive.

Welcome to the Tech Forum! For your awareness, this forum primarily serves as a location for user-to-user discussion and self-help, and has no connection to any official Church support systems. There definitely are a few Forum members who have a lot of good insight about Church Tech, but we're all regular church members like yourself, and nobody here is an "admin" in the sense I think you're looking for.

So I expect most forum members share your desire that the Circles functionality be better supported, and share your desire for the Church to be more communicative about this app. But we have no insider awareness of what, if any, timeline there is for making any of the myriad of changes that have been discussed here in the forum.
