Sharing a Tile means you authorize someone to update the Tile’s location, ring the Tile, look for its last known location on the map, and ask to be notified when the Tile is found.

Each Tile can be shared with one other member. To share with unlimited members, subscribe to Tile Premium or Premium Protect.
