FAQs

Name

Wherefore is my name different in the group than in my Spond profile?


The admin of a group can change the name displayed in the member list. This name will appear in the group context and invitations in connection with the group in question. The reason for this is that admins should be able to organise their groups as they wish and not be confused by group members using nicknames etc. that he/she does not recognise.

If you want a different name to appear in the relevant group, contact the group's admin and ask him/her to update it.

Can others in the group I'm in see my date of birth?


When you join a group, your birth month and year will be transferred to you as a member of the group. Only group admins with member editing rights can see your date of birth.

Can I only register phone numbers to my Spond profile?


No, unfortunately this is not possible. You can have your phone number and email registered or only your email address.
