# How Do I Create a Group in glancy?

Create the group first, then decide who belongs to it and what access those people should receive.



Open Groups under People and tap New group. Enter a name and an optional description. After creating it, add accepted connections and manage the shared access rule.

## Set a name and description

1. Open **People**, then **Groups**.
2. Tap **New group**.
3. Enter a group name, such as “Family”. A description is optional.
4. Tap **Create group**.

The new group opens. Creating it does not by itself set up location sharing for new people.

*A name is required; you can also add a description.*

## Add members and configure access

Inside the group, tap **Add** and choose accepted connections. Read the access preview. An active group rule may give added people access immediately. Without an active rule, they initially receive no access through the group.

Use **Manage access** to set the shared rule. During membership it replaces the stored personal rule. Open **Edit group** to rename your group later.

The free plan allows one editable group; glancy+ allows up to ten. If a limit appears, check your existing groups and active Plus access. Automatically managed groups cannot be edited like your own groups.

## FAQ

### Do I have to add all members immediately?

No. You can create the group first and manage members later. Check whether an active group rule already applies when adding people.

### Can I rename it later?

Yes. Open Edit group for a group you created. Automatically managed groups are excluded.
