Places on Social: only the name is shared
When you tag a place on a postcard or a story, only the place's name is shared, never your GPS position. Location data inside a photo is removed on your phone before it is uploaded.

What it is
How Add location and the Location sticker treat places.
What it does
- Shares the name of the place you pick, such as a neighbourhood, a city or a landmark.
- Removes the location data inside a photo on your phone, before the upload.
- Suggests places from your own trips first when you add a location.
- Searching for a place may ask OpenStreetMap, with the text you typed and an area rounded to about 11 km, and nothing that identifies you.
What it does not do
- It never shares a GPS position or your live location.
- A trip highlight never shares bookings, hotels, flight numbers or exact dates.
- Carreh does not keep the area used to sort place results.
What you need first
Nothing. A place is only shared when you add one.
How it connects to the rest of Carreh
Place pages (postcards and stories from a place), Want to go and Been there.
