My Circle turns nearby events into plans.
Workshops, concerts, exhibitions, stage shows, and gatherings in and around Üsküdar are on the map. Save what you like, add it to your calendar; My Circle will remind you when the time comes.
YOUR PLANS
• My Plans: Your saved events are listed day by day — Today, Tomorrow, This week, Later. Plans are stored on your phone; they won't disappear even if you close the app or move to a different neighborhood. • Add to Calendar: The calendar app's new event screen opens with the title, Istanbul time, and location; you confirm the addition. For exhibitions lasting several days, you choose the day you want to go. • Remind: You'll receive a notification 1 day, 2 hours, or 30 minutes before the event; for ongoing exhibitions, before they close. Tapping the notification will open the event in the app. • Your plans and the feed of events uploaded in the last 24 hours will also open even without internet (a connection may be required for photos and the map).
WHAT IT DOES
• Sorts nearby events by proximity and start time
• Displays listed events on a map; events at the same venue are grouped
• Map of the venue on the event page; other sessions and events at the same venue, if available
• Filters by category: workshop, music, stage, exhibition, food & drink, sea & nature, children, education
• You select a neighborhood — you don't have to grant location permission
• Directions on an external map with transportation type and starting point selection; event sharing
SOURCES
Event information comes from publicly available sources such as Etkinlik.io and municipal culture and arts calendars, and is updated twice daily. The source is listed for each event; tickets and registration remain with the organizer, Çevrem does not sell tickets.
PRIVACY
It doesn't recognize you, doesn't use advertising ID; we don't have our own analytics tool. On Android, the map is displayed using Google Maps; Google collects technical usage and crash data through this component. Registration is not required to view events in this version.
It only retrieves your location when requested, while the application is open; You can select a neighborhood without granting location permission. On the transportation screen, you can select walking, public transport, or cycling and open directions in Google Maps. When you open the map, your selected starting and activity locations are shared with Google; your device location is only used if "My Location" is selected. Cycling routes may not be available in every area. Location tracking is not done in the background.
Your plans, reminders, and recently uploaded feeds are only kept on your phone and are not sent to the server.
Add to calendar does not read your calendar and does not request calendar permission; it only adds the event you approve. The event you add will then be synced with your own calendar account.
Reminders are local notifications set up on your phone; notification permission is only requested when setting up the first reminder. On Android, you can enable the optional "Alarms and reminders" permission for reminder scheduling in Settings. Reminders can be set up when this permission is off, but the system may delay them.
