SHARED HOUSEHOLD PLANNING
Your household, together
One shared week. A clearer shopping list. Fewer messages asking who is doing what. Use Together to organise everyday life while keeping each person’s access deliberate.
Last reviewed 8 November 2026.
Bring your household together without starting over
Open the owner’s invitation link. If you already have an account, sign in with it rather than creating another one. New accounts need email confirmation before joining.
An expired, cancelled or email-restricted invitation needs the owner’s attention. Never share passwords or publish a private invitation link.
Start with Your place
Open Together under Shared household, then choose Your place. It shows your active household, role and assigned responsibilities. The thin role bar stays available across dashboard pages.
Owners manage owner-only access and household billing. Other roles can only see and act on the areas their permissions allow. Guests have limited private-record access; helpers see only the information specifically shared with them.
A family organiser for the plans you share
Use Together for the household week, shopping list, chores, suggestions and shared moments. Available actions and information still depend on role and permissions. A shared plan does not make every personal record visible.
Give tasks a clear owner and date. Your place brings responsibilities into view so household planning becomes less about chasing each other and more about knowing what happens next.
Compare groceries and keep useful references
On the shopping list, Compare prices checks available retailer evidence and shows progress as items finish. There is no daily completed-check allowance. Coverage and current prices are not guaranteed; verify the retailer’s page before buying.
Save a completed comparison, reopen it from Saved comparisons or delete your personal reference with confirmation. Reopening preserves the earlier check; it does not request fresh prices. Your saved copy is separate from the household’s shopping list.
Give Together a household cover
The household owner can upload a cover photo up to 50 MB, replace it or restore the default. The same cover appears on Your place, Chat and the other Together tabs.
Choose a picture the household is comfortable sharing with active participants. Personalising the cover does not change private-record permissions.
Keep conversations useful—and privacy expectations accurate
Use Together → Chat for household messages. Household chat is not currently end-to-end encrypted. Keep passwords, full payment details and sensitive documents out of messages.
Notification inbox updates and supported browser alerts depend on permissions, preferences and device settings. Check the bell and your device settings when an expected alert is missing.
Return comfortably, leave deliberately
Keep me signed in starts selected on the sign-in screen. Use it on your own device, but clear it on a shared device. Always choose Sign out when you want to end that device’s access.
Use Your place to switch between households you belong to or leave when eligible. Owners must resolve ownership before leaving. Leaving a household does not delete your personal account.
Common questions
Does joining give me access to everything?
No. Household roles, permissions and specifically shared records determine what you can see and change.
Are saved comparisons shared with the household?
Saved comparisons are personal references. Deleting your reference does not delete the household shopping list or another person’s saved copy.
