Anyone, including single individuals, can use HouzeGuru for managing their household, even if there are no other members in the household. HouzeGuru can also be used by individuals living in shared accomodation with other individuals, like flatmates, live-in partners or college students living in shared accomodation.
To keep things simple, a person's identity on HouzeGuru is linked to her email-id AND mobile number combination. As long as BOTH of these are different, HouzeGuru shall treat them as different individuals. Hence, that person can become a part of two different households by registering on HouzeGuru with a different mobile number AND email-id.
No, any one family member can download HouzeGuru app, create a household and invite other family members by providing their email-id. The invitee shall receive an invitation email and a message specifying the email-id that she can use to create her HouzeGuru account. As long as the new family member logs in to HouzeGuru with this email-id or social sign-in (Google and Apple) linked to this email-id, she would be able to join the household from where the invitation was sent.
Children above 12 years of age can be invited to join a household on HouzeGuru as long as they have their own mobile number and email account. We currently do not allow children 12 years or younger to be onboarded to HouzeGuru.
