An email will be sent to your invited family member. The email contains an activation code. To join your family account, there are two options:
- On the "Sign in" screen, click on "I have invitation code" at the bottom of the screen. Enter email address, a password and code, and click on Continue. The family member is now added to your family account.
- If your family member has an own account already, simply go to the Menu, click on "Join Family", enter activation code mentioned in the email we sent, and click on "Continue". Your family member is now connected to your account and can easily switch between family accounts by click on the family name in the Menu.
Each user has their own profile and can take or upload a user profile image. This user profile image will be used as avatar for lists and events if assigned to it.
In the family profile you can enter/change your family name, upload your family picture and invite or manager your family members.
