Create a plan
A plan is anything you do together: game night, dinner, a carpool or the service on Sunday. A plan can be one-off or recurring.
Create a plan
Section titled “Create a plan”- In Home or Dates, tap + at the top right. From a group: + → Create plan in {group}.
- For («Für»): Invited only («Nur Eingeladene») or one of your groups.
- What? («Was?») Title and optionally a description.
- When? («Wann?») Start, optionally an end. Under Repeat («Wiederholen») choose never, every week, every 2 weeks or every month. For series, RSVPs and comments apply per date.
- Where? («Wo?»)
- Place («Ort», required for group plans), for example “at Anna’s”
- optionally a point on the map and the address: only members and people who said yes see them
- Neighbourhood («Quartier», optional): visible to everyone who sees the plan
- Participation («Teilnahme», optional):
- Limit places («Plätze begrenzen»): once all places are taken, others go on the waiting list and move up automatically. Handy for a carpool with five seats.
- Registration deadline («Anmeldefrist»): for example “1 day before”. After that nobody can say yes any more; cancelling is always possible.
- Who can come? («Wer kann mitkommen?», see below)
- With Invited only: choose under Invite friends (optional) whom you invite.
- Tap Create («Erstellen»).
My places
Section titled “My places”If you often plan at the same place, save it: when creating a plan with Save as place («Als Ort speichern»), or under Profile → Settings → My places («Meine Orte», up to 10). Then pick it under Where? with From my places («Aus meinen Orten»). Only you see your places. The plan takes a copy; if you change the place later, existing plans stay the same.
Who can come?
Section titled “Who can come?”| Choice | Who sees the plan and can come |
|---|---|
| Only the group / Invited only | Only members and invited people. |
| Friends of the group / My friends | Also friends of members, or your friends. |
| Certain churches («Bestimmte Kirchen») | Also people from the chosen churches, optionally only from one ministry (for example “Sunday Night”). |
| Everyone («Alle») | Everyone in the app can see the plan and ask to come. |
If you open a plan beyond the group, there are also:
- Confirm requests («Anfragen bestätigen», default on): someone in the group confirms who comes.
- Newcomers welcome («Neue willkommen»): shows newcomers they are really welcome.
Only confirmed people see the exact address; before that, others only see the neighbourhood. Anyone who may only view an opened plan sees the number of RSVPs, not the names. Special rules apply to teenagers, see Protection of minors.
On a plan’s page, tap I’m coming («Ich komme mit»). Depending on the plan, it then says:
- You’re coming («Du kommst mit»)
- Request sent («Anfrage gesendet»): someone in the group confirms your request.
- On the waiting list («Auf der Warteliste»): when a place becomes free, you move up automatically.
You can cancel or withdraw at any time, also after the deadline. After you RSVP, add the date to your calendar via the date at the top.
Who’s coming, photos and chat
Section titled “Who’s coming, photos and chat”Under Organisation («Organisatorisches»):
- Who’s coming («Wer kommt») shows those who said yes, the waiting list and those invited. You can also invite friends there.
- Photos («Fotos»): after the meeting, share pictures here, up to 10 at once. Only those who said yes see the photos. Only upload photos the people shown agree with. Delete your own photos with a long press; you can report others’ photos there.
- Chat: write with everyone who’s coming, for example “I’ll bring crisps”. Only people who said yes see the chat. It is not a private channel between two people.
Photos and chat only open after you RSVP.
Managing a plan
Section titled “Managing a plan”Whoever may manage the plan finds under … at the top right:
- Edit plan («Plan bearbeiten»): title, description, place, places, deadline
- Who can come?
- Move date («Termin verschieben»): applies only to this date, not to the whole series
- Cancel date («Termin absagen»): everyone who said yes sees that the date is cancelled.
- Delete plan («Plan löschen»): all dates, RSVPs and comments are deleted.
Confirm requests to come via the line “{n} requests to come”. Everyone else finds Share, Invite friends and Report under ….
Plans for a service
Section titled “Plans for a service”A plan can be attached to a church date, such as “Going to the service together”. Time and cancellation then come from the church, and whoever says yes is also signed up for the service. The church only sees the number of sign-ups. More in Go together.
