We are in Friends and Family beta!

[Dave]

This week we began our friends and family beta. Thank you to the early adopters who were brave enough to try something new and give us invaluable feedback on how to make Stringify even better.

I would Love to help try out the Friends Notification module but it says I need ver 2.0. Is that not available in the US and if so where do I get it.

So friend's email and notificaiton is currently available on iOS and will be available on Android (currently in beta) very soon.

How do I sign up for beta testing?

[lampshade9909]

Stringify friend's email and notification features are in the release version of Android. One way to add a Stringify friend, go to Discover -> Things -> Friends -> then tap connect. Enter your friends email address and they will get an invitation to join Stringify and except your friend request. From there you guys can manage permissions.

In the near future, will also allow you to access your friend's location for flows like "when my spouse and I are both away from home.... lock the door and turn off the lights".

There is an anything specific we are testing in beta at the moment. So the latest Google Play Stringify
App is the one to use.

Any news on the ability to flow according to status/location /presence of family member? How to best achieve that type of functionality?

Question can I link multiple people to the same account

It’s been almost six months since any mention of allowing friends/family to utilize each other’s location. Is this still in the roadmap and is there anything you can share on this? Love the app, but without being able to use location for both of us, things are working less than optimally. Any information is appreciated! Thank you.

Both of these still hold true. Use variables and friend's features to achieve what you want in the short term.

Geofencing with two or more people?

Any update on this feature friends and family

[angus_marshall]

Just use variables. There are several posts with explanation how to set it up. It's quite easy and works well.
