Famiyo uses a simple, secure system for joining a family group. Instead of sending invitations or managing emails, each family has a unique code that new members can enter to join instantly.
Why a Join‑by‑Code System
Families need a quick way to add:
✓ Children
✓ Co‑parents
✓ Caregivers
✓ Relatives
A join code is fast, private, and easy to share.
How It Works
Parent Shares the Code
A parent shares the unique family code with the new member
New Member Enters Code
The new member enters the code in the app
Instant Join
They join immediately with the default role "child"
Role Approval (If Needed)
If they are actually a parent, another parent must approve the role change
This prevents accidental or unauthorized changes to family structure.
Role Management
Famiyo uses two roles:
Parent
Full access to all features:
- • Manage tasks and rewards
- • Create events
- • Approve completions
- • Manage family members
Child
Limited access:
- • View assigned tasks
- • Complete tasks
- • Earn points
- • Redeem rewards
The approval step ensures that only real parents get full permissions.
Safe and Simple
The join‑by‑code system is designed to be:
Secure
Unique codes prevent unauthorized access
Fast
Join in seconds, no email required
Easy for Kids
Simple code entry, no complex setup

Parents control permissions
It's the simplest way to build your family group inside Famiyo.
