Is your feed overflowing with activity?  Worried you might miss the chance to connect with someone nearby because there’s just so much going on?  Now you can choose to receive alerts from Whrrl based on where your friends are in relation to you.

Configure your notification settings with any of these proximity levels:

• Nearby (1/4 mi)
• Walking distance (1 mile)
• In your neighborhood (3 miles)
• Everywhere

Get Content You Care About

Beyond being notified when a friend checks in nearby, you can customize what activity generates a notification with our granular notification settings:

Cut Through the Noise

If your friends are attending a conference or event and their activity is cluttering up your feed, use the mute feature to block notifications from them specifically.  Search as you type to quickly create a list of people you want to mute.  You can un-mute them again at any time.
