Group Settings

Learn what settings you can manage for a group based on your role

Managing Group Settings

Each group's settings can be managed individually. What settings you have access to depend on your role in the group (admin vs member).

To open the Group Settings details, simply click the Group name at the top of the screen when the Group is open in your app. This will open a modal with options to view members, notifications, and— if you're an admin— apps and settings for that Group.

Alternatively, you can click the ellipsis (⋯) in the upper-right corner of the screen. This opens a dropdown menu with the same options mentioned above, and clicking on them will open the modal.
