Can I create a closed group so that we can view each other's success? I just don't want to have to get rid of other friends that I follow.

Thanks for stopping by @MelodyMann! You can create an Activity Group. Members of a group can compete with one another via the leaderboard and participate in discussions.

To add a group, please do the following:

1. Log into your dashboard, then click the Community tab at the top of the page.
2. Scroll down to "Groups." Here you can see the groups you already belong to, if any.
3. Click the Create a Group link and give your group a name and optional description.
4. Choose your privacy settings. Your group can be public, public by invitation only, or private.
5. Click Create. The group page appears where you can add members, view the leaderboard, and participate in discussions.

After creating a group you can invite members to join. To do so, follow these steps: 

1. Go to the group page.
2. In the Members box at the bottom of the page click invite members.
3. Invite up to 10 members at one time by entering their email addresses and clicking Send.

A real-time leaderboard appears the top of the group page. Here you can see where you rank against all other group members by steps, distance, and active minutes for the last 7 days or calendar month. Active score no longer appears.

I hope this helps, keep me posted! 😉
