Want to allow others into your Household to record messages onto your Creative-Tonies? This is one of the best features about Creative-Tonies! All that is required for the other members to have is a free my.tonies.com account. Follow these steps and you will be good to go in no time!
How to invite other members into your Household:
Using the mytonies app
- Open the mytonies app and tap your profile picture in the top-right side of the screen.
- Tap 'Household'.
- Tap the red '+' plus sign on the top-right hand side of the screen.
- Here you can select the permission level you want the new member to have. You can make them either a Full member (allowed to manage Tonieboxes, Creative-Tonies and other members) or only a Creative-Tonie member (may only edit Creative-Tonies that you choose). Tap on the type of member you would like to choose.
- A prompt will appear to enter the individual's email address. Type in the email address and then tap 'Next'.
- Tap 'Confirm'.
-
Success! The member will now receive an email to accept the invitation.
- Below is an example of the email invitation the invited member will receive. All they need to do is click 'Accept Invitation' and they will be prompted to login to their account and confirm that they want to join your Household.
- Note that if you have chosen to make the member a Creative-Tonie member, you will just need to follow through an additional process once the member accepts the invitation to select which specific Creative-Tonies you would like them to have access to. For a full walkthrough of this process, check out our other support article here: How do I manage Household members permissions?
-
Once the member is officially added to your Household, they will either see all of your Tonies or only the Creative-Tonies you have given them access to in their mytonies app or in their my.tonies.com account. They are then all set to record/upload content to a Creative-Tonie the same way you currently do. Just in case, for steps walking through that process, take a look at our other support article here: How do I add content onto my Creative-Tonie?
