Family and sharing

Leave a family, or start your own

Leave a family you joined, hand yours over before you go, or set up a family of your own.

Free4 steps

How you leave depends on your role. A caregiver or a parent just leaves. The owner of a family other people are in makes someone else the owner first, so the family is never left without one.

  1. Go to the foot of Family

    In More, tap Family & caregivers and scroll to Household at the bottom. It holds Join another household, a way to start your own family where that can work, and the way to leave, in red.

  2. Leaving a family you joined

    Tap the red row with the family's name. The app says what happens: you will no longer see the family or get its reminders, and everything you logged stays in its log. Tap Leave family to go, or Cancel.
