Inviting a relative to take their place in the tree

When you add a relative to the tree the app offers to send a WhatsApp message with their own link, and you can send it later as well. This link is for that person only.

What happens when they open it?

1. Your relative goes straight to their own place in the tree, with no sign-up first and nobody to approve them, and can look around and review the tree.
2. A banner asks them to secure their account: they type their email and choose a password.
3. They get an email to confirm their address, then complete their details in their profile (photo, birth date, phone and more) and edit them any time.

Important: they should not close the browser before choosing a password. If they do, they open the same invitation link again and come back to their place, as long as the link (30 days) has not expired and they have not chosen a password yet.

Good to know

• The link works for its owner only and ends as soon as they choose a password. If you send a new link to the same person, the old one stops.
• No new person is created: the account is attached to the place you added, and the family relations stay as they are.
• The link is only for someone without an account, and not for someone who has passed away.
• The action is recorded in Family activity.
