How to Create and Grow a Pod

Just getting started? This video will show you how to create a new pod and send invites so others can join. 

Don't have time to watch the video? Do this:

  • Select Create a New Pod from the start up screen, or if you are already in the app, press on the current Pod name at the top of the home page and choose Create New Pod.
  • Choose the type of Pod that most meets your needs (e.g., Family), add a name, description and photo (optional) and press Create your Pod, then set your Pod Profile (display name and picture).
  • On the next screen, you can invite others, or go directly to your Pod (you can always invite others later). PRO TIP: You can create your own Pod Invite Code! So instead of a random set of numbers, your Pod invite code can be THESMITHFAMILY or BUFFALOBILLSFANS or any other code with a minimum of 10 characters! Custom codes are easier to remember and more fun! Just press the "choose your own code" link and set and save your code.
  • To invite others, press the Share link, which allows you to choose to share by text or by email (and many other ways as well).
  • You can invite additional members after you create the Pod by going to the Members tab and pressing the Invite Member Icon Invite Member Icon
  • You can change the settings/info of the pod you created by going to the Main Menu and selecting Manage Pods. Choose your pod, make changes and press Save.
