Community Q&A

Question

Does everyone I invite to the group message need the app to see the invite?

Community Answer

No they can see the invite in singular text that shows everyone. It works just as well as it would with the app and they can rejoin without the app
Question

If I remove myself from Groupme, does anyone know about it?

Community Answer

Yes. Groupme will automatically send a message to the members of your group saying that you have left the group.
Question

If I add a new member to the group, can they see past messages?

Community Answer

No, they cannot.
