Participants

Four roles, invite links, and a way to check what your group sees before you send it.

A trip has an organiser, some people riding it, and usually a few following from home. Participants gives each of them exactly the access their part needs, without a permissions matrix nobody wants to configure.

Roles that map to real people

Owner and editor change the plan. Riders are on the trip: they tick their own packing and tasks, log progress and expenses, and post photos, but cannot rewrite the route. Viewers read β€” a partner at home who wants the detail without edit rights.

The distinction between a rider and a viewer also drives the maths: viewers are excluded from expense splits and from per-person checklists.

  • Owner β€” everything, including settings, sharing and deletion.
  • Editor β€” change the plan.
  • Rider β€” own checkboxes, progress, expenses, photos.
  • Viewer β€” read only.

Preview as a participant

Knowing what your group will see normally means creating a second account and inviting yourself. Instead there is a toggle that re-renders the entire app read-only, exactly as a rider or viewer gets it.

It is a view-only lens over the interface, not a security boundary β€” the database still enforces the real permissions underneath. It exists so you can check the experience before you send the invite.

  • One click from the sidebar.
  • Every tab, not just one screen.
  • Clearly banded so you never forget you are in it.

Good to know

  • Invitations are by link. There is no email invitation sent from the app yet.
  • Roles are per trip, so someone can be an editor on one and a viewer on another.
  • Preview-as-participant hides editing UI; it does not simulate a different person's checkboxes.
