# Contacts & friend requests

**Contacts** is where your training circle lives — friends, and (for clients) your coach.

## Adding friends

1. Open **Contacts** from the menu.
2. **Search** for a friend by their details.
3. Send a **friend request** — they'll get a notification and can accept from their Contacts screen.

## What friends can do

* **Message each other** — see [Messages](/friends-and-messaging/messages.md).
* **Share workouts** — send a workout you've built or enjoyed to a friend so they can train it themselves. See [Sharing workouts](/friends-and-messaging/sharing-workouts.md).

## Managing requests

Incoming friend requests appear in Contacts and as notifications. Accept or decline — declined requests aren't notified to the sender.
