PollWhen works for everyone, and where do we meet?Ask a question and send the link. Everyone taps what works for them. Nobody has to sign up.
- Ask your question: Write down what you want to decide and what the options are.
- See the results: You see right away which option is ahead and who has answered.
Who brings whatSo not everyone shows up with potato salad.One shared list, so nothing shows up twice and nothing is missing. Everyone adds what they’re bringing.
- Start the list: Say what it’s for and add what you need.
- Everyone signs up: Each person taps what they’ll bring, so everyone sees what’s still missing.
Sign-up sheetWho sets up, who cleans up, who’s on the grill?Who sets up, who cleans up, who’s on the grill? Everyone signs up for a job themselves.
- Add jobs: Write down what needs doing.
- Let people sign up: Each person picks something. You see what’s still open.
ExpensesAdd expenses and see at the end who owes whom.Add who paid for what and see at the end who owes whom. No sign-up and no limits.
- Set it up: Say what it’s for.
- Settle up: Everyone adds what they paid. Groupilla does the math, and you send the money yourselves.
PlacesHotel, restaurant, meeting point: all the addresses in one place.Every place goes in once, with its address. One tap opens directions in your own maps app.
- Add places: Enter a name and an address. Add a date and the place shows up in the calendar too.
- Get directions: Everyone taps a place and opens directions in their maps app.
Anything you don’t need, just turn off.
What to think about for New Year’s Eve
- Decide early whose place it is and whether everyone can stay the night.
- Who brings food, who brings drinks, and who has the fondue pot or the raclette grill?
- Hand out jobs for the night and the morning after, especially cleaning up.
- Plan how everyone gets home. Trains run on a different schedule that night, and rides are hard to get.
- Add shared purchases as you go, so settling up on January 1 is quick.
Common questions
- Does everyone need to sign up?
- No. People join with just their name, and nobody needs an app. Only the chat asks for an email address once, so not everyone with the link can read along.
- How do we split the costs?
- Everyone adds what they paid. Groupilla works out who owes whom how much. The money doesn’t go through us.
- Can we vote on where to celebrate?
- Yes. Ask a question with a few options, and everyone taps what works for them.
- Does everyone see the same list?
- Yes. When someone adds something, the others see it right away.
