If you've already created a group and have decided to make it private, you can easily invite members, as long as you know their username(s).
Web:
- Click the 'Community' tab at the top of the MyFitnessPal webpage.
- Once the community page is open, then select the 'Groups' sub-tab.
- Once you're in the Groups section, scroll until you find your custom private group under 'My Groups.'
- When you're in your private group (as a group owner or leader), click the blue 'Options' button.
- Then click 'Invite Members,' and from there, you can type in their username(s). Then, just wait for your friends to accept their invite.
* Please note that if you are trying to add a user whose username isn't auto-populating in that field, it's because that user has never clicked into the community before. Please send your friend a message letting them know that they need to click the community tab at least once before their name appears in that field.
iOS/Andoid:
- Click the 'More' tab.
- Then 'Community.'
- Select the 'Menu' button in the upper left corner.
- Then select 'Groups.'
- Once you're in the Groups section, scroll until you find your custom group under 'My Groups.'
- When you're in your custom group (as a group owner or leader), click the blue 'Options' button.
- Then click 'Invite Members,' and from there, you can type in their usernames.
* Please note that if you are trying to add a user whose username isn't auto-populating in that field, it's because that user has never clicked into the community before. Please send your friend a message letting them know that they need to click the community tab at least once before their name appears in that field.
Private Group Search:
Since you've created a private group, your group will not be searchable via the groups' search feature, so you'll need to send an invitation to the user(s) you'd like to invite.
To join a private group, you'll need to know the user who created the group or a group leader. Then, you can send that group creator or group leader a Private Message to request an invitation to join the group.
