# Sharing
Hubs, devices, tiles, and apps can be shared between users.
To share any of these objects with another user, you must be either the **Owner** of the object or you must have been assigned the **Admin** *role* for the object.
For most scenarios, users will want to share apps with one another because apps are built to have the precise set of tiles needed for a given use case.
## How to Share
Sharing is possible anywhere the button is found.
Here are the places you can find the button for each object type:
| Object Type | Share Button Location\[s] | What is Shared |
| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| App |
In the left navbar when viewing any app
In the Apps → Manage view, accessible from the Apps view via the left navbar
| The app and all tiles within it |
| Device | In the [Controls → Devices](https://platform.motion.cloud/controls/devices) view, under each device name | The device and all tiles associated with the device |
| Hub | In the [Controls → Hubs](https://platform.motion.cloud/controls/hubs) view, under each hub name | The hub and all devices associated with the device, as well as all tiles associated with those devices |
| Tile | In the [Controls → Tiles](https://platform.motion.cloud/controls/tiles) view, under each tile name | The tile only |
After clicking any button, click **Add User** on the top right of the sharing panel. Here, you can enter either:
1. The user's Motion username
2. The user's email address that is associated with Motion
After a matching user is identified, choose the roles the user should have:
For more information on what permissions are given with different roles, see [Roles and Permissions](https://api-docs.motion.cloud/technical-notes/roles-and-permissions) in our API docs.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Assigning the **Admin** role will give the user the ability to share and un-share the object with other users.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
Multiple roles can be assigned to a single user simultaneously, and different roles may come with overlapping permissions.
Therefore, e.g., it is not necessary to assign any additional roles to a user if they have the **Admin** role because the **Admin** role gives that user all permissions.
