Everything you have shared with one person

Contacts lists the people you have shared with or invited. It builds itself as you work: somebody you send a share to, invite or put on a guest list appears under Recently shared with, and the people you save, name or connect with are listed above that. You reach it from your profile menu, top right, under Contacts.

Open somebody and their page answers the question you actually have about them, which is usually "what did I send this person, and did it land". Three sections, and a section with nothing in it is not drawn at all.

• Shares. The links you emailed to that address, newest first, each one marked opened or not opened yet, with the date you sent it.
• Documents. Documents you own that this person can open.
• Meetings. Events on your calendars with them on the guest list, from 30 days back to 90 days ahead.

What the marks mean, and what they do not#

• Opened comes from the email, and an email can only report that when the recipient's mail application loads the images in it. A great many people read with images off, so "not opened yet" is not evidence that nobody read it.
• A view is only counted where the visitor said who they were, by signing in or by opening a link addressed to them. Somebody who opened your link without doing either did not go unrecorded, they are simply on the link rather than on the person. For everything one link did, use Trace.

A person with nothing behind them yet gets one quiet line instead of three empty headings. That is the normal state for somebody you have only just added, and it fills in as you send them things. It empties the same way: a link you delete takes what it recorded off the page with it.

Connecting with somebody#

Somebody with a Nemi account shows you their username and photo, and nothing more, until the two of you connect. Press Connect on their page and they get a request in their notifications. Once they accept, you both see each other's full name and the ring that shows whether you are online. People you already work with in a workspace, or in the same Business organisation, see your name without connecting.

• Declining is private. The other person is not told; their page keeps saying the request was sent, and they cannot send it again.
• Asking back is accepting. If somebody already asked you, pressing Connect on their page connects you straight away.
• Removing is quiet too. Press Connected on their page to remove the connection. Your shared history stays exactly as it was.

Keeping the list tidy#

On a person’s page you can give them a name, or change one, so the list stops showing bare addresses; the name is yours alone and the person never sees it. Remove takes them out of your contacts and nothing else: your links, documents and history stay exactly as they were, and sharing with that address again quietly puts them back on the list. Email opens your mail app, and Send files takes you to your files to start a new link.
