An account is a household, or an organization. Whoever creates it, with an invite from Readout, is its owner. Everyone in it shares its TVs, home agents, lights and TV schedule.

​
Invite someone

The owner invites others from Menu → Account:
  • Invite with a link shows a link to send however you like.
  • Invite by text, on a phone or tablet, opens Messages with the link written in, to send from your own number.
  • Invite by email sends it to the email you type. Only that email can use it.
An invite works once, for a week. Whoever joins becomes a member of your account.

​
What the owner can do

  • give a member a new password, if they forget theirs
  • remove someone from the account
  • turn on silent drop-ins for a TV
  • see everyone’s sign-ins in Activity, and every meeting transcript

​
More than one account

Someone in two households’ accounts signs in once, and each device chooses which it’s in: switch from the top bar, or from Menu → Account.

​
Usage

Menu → Account shows how much of the account’s daily captions have been used.
