Set up your family: the first two minutes
Open the app and tap Get started. The bee asks a few questions and Beeside sets up your family from your answers.
- What's coming up for you this week? Type or say a few things, like an event or something for the shopping. Each becomes a real entry.
- Who lives with you? Add a partner, children or someone else. First names are enough; for children Beeside needs the date of birth.
- What should I help you with? Pick the areas, such as Groceries, Calendar, Chores or Passwords. You can change this any time.
- Here's what next week holds. Choose the day and time for your weekly overview, Sunday 18:00 by default.
- Press and hold the honeycomb and Beeside sets everything up. Kids get a few chores with stars straight away.
- Under Keep your Beeside safe. choose how to sign in: Apple, Google or email with a code.
Good to know
- Beeside doesn't ask for your country, stores or aisles. The region comes from your phone's settings; stores and aisles are prepared and can be changed later.
- A family has up to 20 people, including you.
- If you added a partner, Beeside then suggests sending them a link.
- On the web you set up a family with a short form, without the conversation with the bee.
