Invitations and Joining
Invitations are how another person joins an existing Smart Lists list. The invitation code connects the person to that specific list.
Creating an invitation
- Open the list you want to share.
- Tap the share icon.
- Create an invitation code.
- Send the invitation code to the person you want to add.
Sending an invitation code
- Create the invitation from the list you want to share.
- Copy or share the invitation code with the person you want to invite.
- The invited person can use the code from “Join list” in the side drawer.
Using an invitation code
- Copy the invitation code sent to you.
- Open Smart Lists.
- Open the side drawer.
- Select “Join list”.
- Paste or enter the invitation code.
What the person joining sees
After joining, the new member sees the shared list and the content available to members of that list.
The member count updates to include the new member.
Invalid invitations
If an invitation cannot be used, Smart Lists may show that the link is invalid or no longer available.
Ask the list owner or an existing member to create a new invitation if needed.
Expired or revoked invitations
An invitation that is no longer active cannot be used to join the list.
Create a new invitation from the list and send the new link.
Joining a list you already belong to
- If you already belong to the list, opening another invitation should not create a second membership.
- Return to Home and open the existing shared list from there.
What happens if the list has been deleted
An invitation cannot provide access to a list that no longer exists.
If the list was deleted, the invitation is no longer useful.
