Manage members and roles
As an administrator you approve new members, give members roles and remove people who should no longer be in the group. Everything is done under Members in the group. What the roles may do is listed in Roles and permissions.
The member list
Everyone in the group sees the member list. The mobile app shows each member's role and can filter on All Members and Admins. The web app shows the administrators separately and marks them Admin. Search for a member with the search box.
Approve requests
- Tap Groups and then Members.
- Choose the Requests filter.
- Tap the person and choose Approve Request or Decline Request.
- Open the group and click the Members tab.
- Under Requests you see everyone who is waiting. Click Show to see the person's email and voice part.
- Click Approve request or Decline.
A person who is approved becomes a Member. Give another role afterwards if needed.
Change a member's role
- Tap the member in the list.
- Choose Change to Administrator, Change to Group leader or Change to Member.
- Click the menu next to the member.
- Choose Make member an admin or Remove as admin.
The web app only has these two choices. A member who is removed as administrator becomes a Member. You give the Group leader role in the mobile app.
Note
A group must always have at least one administrator. The last administrator can't change role, leave the group or be removed. First make someone else an administrator.
Remove a member
Tap the member and choose Remove from Group. Confirm.
Click the menu next to the member and choose Remove member. Confirm.
A person who is removed no longer sees the group. They can join again with a new request, which an administrator must approve.
Email a member
Tap the member and choose Email in the mobile app, or click the menu and Send email in the web app. Your email program opens with the member's address. Members who aren't administrators can email the group's administrators: in the mobile app the same way, in the web app with the email icon next to the administrator.
