Managing members

If you own a group, both the website and the app give you a member management screen — see who has joined, find members on the map, and tidy up their details. These tools are owner-only: members who don't own the group don't see them.

This works the same way on iOS and Android, and mirrors what the website offers.

Opening group management

On mobile: while a group is selected, open the group options (the screen where you share the QR code or leave the group). If you're the owner, you'll see a Group management (or Manage group) option there.

On the web: open the group's page from your Group Manager — the member list and owner actions are right there.

Group management is owner-only. The app decides this by checking that you are the group's owner; non-owners simply don't get the Manage group button, and any edit action is greyed out.

The members list

The management screen shows your group's name at the top, an inline group QR code you can tap to share, a members count, and the list of everyone who has joined. Each member shows:

  • profile picture,
  • username,
  • first and last name (hidden if not set),
  • phone number (hidden if not set),
  • the device they're using (e.g. Pixel 2).

Per-member actions

Each member has a ⋮ (three-dot) menu with:

  • View last location on the map — opens the in-app 3D / social map centred on the member's last known position.
  • View last location on Google Maps — opens that position in Google Maps (or the maps website if no maps app is installed).
  • Edit member — see below.

The two "view location" options are available only when the member has a recorded position. For someone who hasn't recorded anything yet, they're disabled. Edit is enabled only for the owner.

Editing a member

As the owner, you can tidy up a member's identity. What you can change depends on whether they're a guest or a registered member:

  • For a guest (someone who joined without an account) you can set their first name, last name and phone number — handy for labelling "Unregistered" participants at an event.
  • For a registered member you can edit their first and last name only. Their phone number is locked, and account credentials (email, phone) are never editable by anyone else — the phone field isn't even shown for registered members.

Username, profile picture, device and location are never editable from here. Non-owners see the Edit option greyed out.

Why guests can be edited more. A guest has no profile of their own, so the owner fills in the blanks (name, phone) to make the member list readable. A registered athlete owns their identity, so only display-name corrections are allowed.

On the web

The website member list shows the same people with avatars, names, Owner / Guest / Live badges, click-to-call phone numbers, device names, a Live tracking button and a Last location link (with a "x ago" timestamp). The owner-only Edit action appears for guest members, opening a small form to set first name, last name and phone — exactly matching the app.
