Niantic Social is an optional feature that enables you to communicate and coordinate real-world gameplay, manage your profile and friends list, and discover communities around you, all from directly within Niantic’s games.

Niantic Social is currently accessible from within Ingress, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, and other select titles in Closed Beta so your friends and communities follow you across the games you love (with more games coming soon!). Please keep an eye out for future announcements on when Niantic Social will be coming to your favorite Niantic title.
 

To access Niantic Social, look for the chat bubble icon within Ingress and Harry Potter: Wizards Unite.
