Remove a member (owner only)

  1. Open More, Your Family, Members.
  2. Tap the red on the member’s row.
  3. Confirm. The button names the person, for example Remove Daniel.
The Members screen, with the red remove button on Daniel's row.

They lose access to the family’s children and history at once. They keep their Cami account and any other family they are in. The entries they logged stay in the family’s history.

If they should not come back with the old link, make a new one: open the invite, tap Invite options, then New Invite Link…. The old link and code stop working immediately.

Leave a family

  1. Open More, Your Family.
  2. Tap Leave Family, then confirm.

You lose access to the family’s children and history. You can rejoin later with an invite code. Your account and your other families stay.

If you are the owner, you hand the family to someone as you leave. When you tap Leave Family, Cami asks who takes over:

  • With one other member, the button names them, for example Make Daniel Owner and Leave.
  • With more, tap Choose a New Owner…, pick the member, then tap Make Owner and Leave.

They become the owner and you leave in the same step.

If you are the only member, there is nobody to hand it to, so there is no Leave Family. Delete the family instead.

In Cami 1.2, Your Family is called Manage Family.

Delete a family (owner only)

Deleting a family erases every child in it, every entry, every schedule and the invite code, for you and for everyone else in it. It cannot be undone.

  1. Open More, Your Family.
  2. Tap Delete Family.
  3. Read what goes. Type the family’s name in the box.
  4. Press and hold the red button until it fills.
The Delete Family sheet: what goes, the family's name partly typed in the confirm field, and the Delete Rivera button, still locked.34

The other members keep their accounts and any other family they are in. Your account stays too.

What the other person sees

A removed member no longer sees the family’s children or history in Cami. To come back, they need a new invite from someone in the family.

Cami also shows them a notice that says they are no longer in the family.

I can't see Remove, Transfer Ownership or Delete Family

These are for the family’s owner. The owner’s row in More, Your Family, Members has the Owner tag. Ask them, or ask them to make you the owner.

It says nothing was deleted

The button needs a full press. Press and hold until it fills completely.
