People on this page, and the family & friends list
Members are the people who can see everything and add to it. Family & friends is the record of who was in their life — with or without an account.
Two lists look alike and aren't:
- People on this page (under the page's ⋯, beside Invite) — the members: everyone who can see all of the page and add to it, with how each is connected. This is who "who will see this" means.
- Family & friends (a section of the page, managed under Settings) — the people in their life: parents, children, partners, friends, colleagues, pets. Many never have an account. It's a flat grouped list, on purpose — not a family tree.
Connecting the two
When someone accepts an invitation made for a name in Family & friends, their account links to that entry. Their tagged photos, their own page (if they have one) and connections all follow from that link. See Two names, one person.
"connections" beside a name
Tap connections under someone in the list and you get two things: what they are to you (Your mother, You're their son), and where else you can find them — the other pages you can already see that place them, each with what that page calls them (Maria's page · Husband) and a way across. It only ever shows pages you could open anyway.
It does not show who is on their page, and there's no chart. A list of everyone's relations would be a family tree by another name, and that's not what a Life Page is.
Who visitors see
Family & friends and the contributors list are hidden from visitors by default — they name real people. Managers can show them under Settings → Privacy.
