Account, roles and child accounts
Information on how the family account, administrator, adult and child roles, and invitations work in Famsy.
How do I invite more members to the family account?
New members are invited via a link. Once the link is used, the person can join the family account, up to a total of 10 members.
Can children make changes to the calendar?
No, child accounts can view the family calendar but cannot edit it, ensuring that only adults and the administrator control what gets added.
How many people can join the same family account?
A family account can have up to 10 members in total, including both adults and child accounts.
Can you have multiple administrators in the same account?
Famsy defines the administrator role as the person managing the subscription. Deciding who holds this role is managed by the family themselves when sending out invitations.
How do I log in to Famsy?
You can log in using email or Google, depending on your preference.
Can I change a member's role later on?
Roles control what members can do in the account, such as whether a child account can edit the calendar or not. Role changes are managed within the family account settings.
What can an adult member do that a child account cannot?
An adult member can add and edit activities in the calendar, whereas a child account can only view the information without making changes.
Does every family member need to create their own account?
Yes, each member joins the family account via the invite link and logs in with email or Google to receive their specific role in the account.
Can I remove a member from the family account?
The family account is managed by the administrator, who can adjust membership if someone should no longer have access to the account.
Can all members see the same household details and calendar?
Yes, members of the same family account share the same calendar and household section, but what they can edit depends on their role as an administrator, adult or child.
Can a child account add items to the shopping list?
Famsy specifies that child accounts cannot edit the calendar. Household features such as the shopping list are normally managed by adult members in the account.
Does logging in work the same way on mobile and computer?
Yes, Famsy is a web app that works on both mobile and desktop, and logging in with email or Google works the same way regardless of the device.
