You join with your own account. You then see the same baby, the same day and the same week.
Short answer
Tap the link you got, then open Veilleuse. Or, on the screen about your baby, tap I have an invite code, type the code and slide Join the family all the way to the right.
Veilleuse is for iPhone.
Before you start
Install Veilleuse on your iPhone. Sign in with your own account: your email, Apple or Google. Don’t use the account of the person who invited you.
Don’t add the baby on your phone. If you do, you start a second diary, and you can’t join the first one.
You don’t pay anything. The family’s subscription covers you.
With the link
- Tap the link in the message you got. A Veilleuse web page opens, with the code on it.
- Tap the button on that page to open Veilleuse. If Veilleuse is not installed yet, install it, then tap the link again.
- If Veilleuse asks you to sign in, sign in. The app then opens the code screen with the code already typed. Slide the button at the bottom all the way to the right.
- If you were already signed in, Veilleuse joins the family by itself and opens the home screen.
If the link does not open the code screen, use the code instead, as below.
Only Veilleuse’s own links open a screen in the app: an invite link, and the timer card on your lock screen. Any other link only opens the app, on Home.
With the code
On the first screens, Veilleuse asks Tell us about your baby.
- Tap I have an invite code on that screen. Don’t fill in the baby form.
- The screen Enter your invite code. opens. Tap the field and type the code: 8 letters and numbers, without the space. Capital letters come by themselves.
- The button at the bottom now says Join the family. Put your finger on the round handle on its left. Keep your finger on the screen and slide it all the way to the right.
Before the 8th character, the button says Type the 8-character code and does not move. To go back to the baby form, tap the arrow on the left of the button.
Once you are in, you see the same baby, the same day and the same week as the rest of the family.
If it does not work
- That code did not work. Check it and try again. or That code did not work: the code is wrong, more than 7 days old, or already used. Check each character. A code never has the letters I or O, or the numbers 0 or 1. If it still fails, ask for a new code.
- This family is full: the family already has 3 people, or the owner is on the Free plan, which has no room for carers. The owner can remove someone, or subscribe to the Family plan.
- Already in a family: your account already belongs to a family. See what to do.
On these screens, Go to Home takes you back to the app.
