Creating a Crew and Sending Invitations
The free Gather My Crew app is available rom the App Store or Google play. Once you have downloaded and opened the app, you will be guided through the process of opening an account and creating a crew.
Now your crew is created, we encourage you to work through the Level up your help steps. These will help you think about the sort of support you'll be asking your crew to provide.
If you're not sure at this early stage, you can always come back to it later. And don't worry, all of this can be very easily changed if and when you need to.
The following video runs through the Level up your help steps:
- Create a Help List
- Add support preferences
- Add a Guide
- Write an update
- Arrange a welcome chat
- Add a Crew Member
There is more information about these in App Features.
