Choose the option "Create a Group"
Name your group + Select preferences - After you select a name, the next screen will prompt you to customize your sharing defaults for the group.
Invite the members to your group
You can invite as many people as you want. You can have people open the "camera" app on their phone to scan the QR code that is created for you. You can also tap on "share link" and invite people that way through e-mail or texts. Finally, you can also just copy and share the "group code" that is a six digit code created at the top of the page.
Congratulations! You've now created your first group. You can create as many more groups as you like by clicking the Add Group button.
What are the features of Hallow Groups or the Community Tab?
A. Add intentions, reflections, and a Mood Check - You can add the following simply by clicking the plus button at the middle left-hand side of the screen.
B. You are also able to share prayers and journal reflections after you complete a prayer. After you complete a prayer, slowly scroll down to add your reflections or thoughts. Then on the bottom left-hand side of the screen, you can decide if you'd like to share your reflection with groups or keep it private.
If you'd like to share the reflection with other groups, select the groups found on your list before you hit "Done" and "Post". After you share your reflection your group will be notified via push notification and the reflection & prayer will be posted to the group.
Group members can react to your reflection, add a reply, or play the session by clicking on it, which will lead them to the same session.
