A group is a few people who’ve agreed to see each other’s period dates. You make one, send your friends a link, and from then on the Groups tab shows everyone on one timeline. There’s no feed, no comments and no public profile.
You don’t need Plum Premium to create a group, join one or see what your friends share.
What a group is for
It’s for the people you already talk to about this, like housemates who want to know why everyone’s tired the same week, or friends planning a trip. A partner who’d rather see the date than ask can join too. The syncing guide covers why periods only feel like they line up, and a group lets you check for yourself.
What members see
Members see period dates, and exercise days if you track them. The group shows each member’s last period, their next expected one and whether they’re on their period today, plus which days in the last four weeks they worked out. Nobody sees your symptoms, mood, fertile window or phase, ever, and the full list of what stays private is short enough to read in a minute.
Step by step
- Open the Groups tab and tap Create a group. Give it a name of up to 40 characters. You can rename it later.
- Tap Invite friends and send the link. Plum makes a link for the group. Share it in whatever chat you already use with those friends. The link is the only way in, and it holds a ten-character code that can’t be guessed.
- Friends tap the link. If they have Plum, the group opens and they join with one tap. If they don’t, the link shows the group’s name and sends them to the App Store, and Plum offers the group as soon as they’ve signed in. If a link ever fails to open the app, Join with a link on the Groups tab takes the pasted link or its code.
- See each other on one timeline. The group screen lists every member with their last period, their next expected period and whether they’re on their period today. Everyone in the group gets a note when somebody new joins.
