Sharing with family


You can invite family members to share to your Loop. This will allow them to send photos/videos and see what the rest of the family is sharing. Even people without their own Loop can join in with the free mobile app.

If you’re sharing a Loop within the same household - only the account on which the Loop was set up will be able to control the Loop’s settings (screen brightness etc). You can either share your account credentials to give full control or just share channels to their account so they can view and add to them.

Note: For more information about how to setup Loops and user accounts for family sharing take a look at the ‘User accounts and Loops’ section on the ‘Setting up your Loop’ page.

To get started, tap the invite button on the top left of the Channels screen.
