Getting started on SquadPod from your Apple device

 

Welcome to SquadPod

With SquadPod, team communication has never been easier. You can chat, video conference, share files, and more in one app that places privacy first. Our What is SquadPod? article will help you get familiar with the app. Once you have looked those over, you can follow the steps in this guide to login to your SquadPod account, create or join a squad, and start collaborating with your teammates and customers.

A squad is a private space where you and your team can connect and collaborate. You can have different squads for the different teams in your life, like your work team, your volunteering team, or your family. 

Get Started

The SquadPod application is available on web, Apple and Android platforms and it syncs across all devices. Check out the minimum requirements for using SquadPod on your Apple device, download the application, and login to your account.

After signing in, you are ready to create or join your first squad. Follow the steps below to create or join a squad.  If someone has invited you to a squad then you can skip to the Join a squad section.  

Create a squad

When you create a squad, you will become the default squad admin and billing admin. These roles are associated with a set of permissions that will allow you to manage your squad and set your team up for success. You can create multiple squads, but you are limited to having only one squad on the free subscription plan.

• Step 1: Create a squad
• Step 2: Learn about your squad role and default set of permissions
• Step 3: Determine which squad plan is right for you and your team
• Step 4: Invite people to your squad

Join a squad

You can join an unlimited number of squads. In order to join a squad, you must receive an invitation to join the squad from a squad admin. SquadPod currently works this way to ensure that squads are secure and private spaces.

What's next?

Within your squad, create or join a chat, discussion, or video call to start collaborating with your teammates and customers. 

• Create a chat - send messages or share files quickly in a direct or group chat.
• Create a discussion - keep related conversations, files, and tasks organized in one shared place.
• Start a video call - connect face to face with team members instantly through private and easy-to-use video calls.

Please note: your ability to complete these actions will depend on your squad role.
