Private groups (the default)
- Invite-only. People join through your share link or 6-character code.
- Not listed anywhere public. Nobody outside the group can see the name, the members, or the activity.
- Best for friends, family, an office, a Slack channel, a WhatsApp circle.
Public groups
- Listed in the in-app Discover tab so signed-in users can find them.
- Joining is admin-approved: the requester taps Request to join, the admin sees it in their pending list, and the admin decides.
- Public listing only exposes the group name, the admin's username, an active-member count, and aggregate stats. Member lists, individual predictions, and any future comments stay visible only to members.
Admin vs member
Every group has one admin. The admin:
- Creates the group and sets the privacy.
- Manages the share link and short code (can rotate or revoke).
- Decides who gets in for public groups via Request-to-join.
- Can switch a group between private and public.
Members predict, see the group's reveal once locks close, and chat once match-day comments ship.
What stays hidden
Predictions are private until the 15-minute lock. After that, every member of your group can see the picks; nobody outside the group ever can.
