Thank you for joining this short session on using Nextdoor to connect with your neighborhood. We explored how to navigate settings, view posts by location, and adjust privacy preferences to make the platform work best for you.

Key Takeaways and Next Steps

Accessing Settings

On a computer or tablet, settings are now located at the bottom left of the screen, not under your profile. On the mobile app, you’ll still find settings in your profile.

Viewing Your Neighborhood Posts

Go to Settings > Neighborhoods > Explore Neighborhoods. This shows a map of your area and lets you view posts from just your neighborhood without scrolling through unrelated content.

Following and Unfollowing Neighborhoods

Select nearby neighborhoods on the map and click “Follow” to see their posts. You can unfollow anytime if you no longer want updates.

Privacy Settings

Within Settings > Privacy, you can choose how your name and photo appear to others. Posts from your neighborhood are visible to anyone on Nextdoor, but privacy controls help manage your personal information.

Groups for Specific Interests

Unlike neighborhood feeds, groups on Nextdoor are more private, only members of a group can see its posts. Consider joining groups that align with your interests.
