See yourself the way other people see you
Open any connection and view your own card through their eyes, field by field.
What this is
Permission systems usually ask you to trust them. This one lets you check.
How they see you renders your own contact card exactly as one specific person sees it — the fields they have, and a count of the ones they do not.
Before you start
You need to be connected to the person. This shows a real view of a real grant, not a preview of a hypothetical one.
Steps
- Open Contacts and tap someone you are connected to.
- Tap How they see you.
- Read the card. What is there is what they have.
- At the bottom, Tether tells you how many fields are hidden from them and which circle is doing the granting.
What to expect afterward
If something is missing that you want them to have, the fix is to grant it to a circle they are in — not to edit anything on their end. If something is there that you would rather it were not, remove them from the circle granting it, or stop granting that field to the circle.
There is a second version of this worth knowing about: what new people see before you have sorted them into any circle. That is the floor, and it is the same for everyone — name, photo, handle, mobile, and nickname.
Troubleshooting
The option is not there. It only appears for people you are actually connected to. For a contact you keep yourself, there is no grant to inspect.
A field is blank rather than missing. A blank means you have granted it but have not filled it in. Add it to your own profile and it appears for everyone already granted it.
