User Concerns:<p>- Location permission: We do request location services privileges due to the fact that channels are location based. We NEVER use this location information unless you create a channel, and then only use that to associate that channel with a location. When creating a channel, you can also choose to not show your exact location, in which case your original location is never displayed but instead shows the channel on the map in the center of a half mile radius circle. If you do not show your exact location, users also cannot navigate to your location. You toggle this option at any time.<p>- Private channels: We understand that there is a desire to create channels that are private&#x2F;invite only, and we are working now to create this feature.
