How do I invite or add friends or family to Opal

There are several ways to be social with Opal! Here's how.

Invite friends and family to receive rewards

If your friends and family could benefit from better focus, invite them to use Opal today and you'll receive rewards!Β If you have five friends create accounts using your referral, you will receive one year of Opal Pro for free. Here is how to invite them from the Opal app:

  • Go to your Opal "Settings" (accessible from the top right corner of your "Profile" tab)
  • Scroll down and click "Share Opal"
  • Send the link to your friends via your preferred messaging app

....but I'm not seeing my referrals in Opal!

If you've sent referrals to your contacts using the instructions above, and they are not reflected within Opal, please take the following steps to sort that out:

  • Ensure you're on the newest version of the app here
  • Press the Share icon in the top right of your "Home" tab and tap on Your Referral Code to copy it
  • Send the code to your friends who've signed up
  • Ask your Friends to visit their "Profile" tab > Settings (accessible from the top right corner of your "Profile" tab) > Enter Referral Code
  • Ask them to enter your referral code
Please note only new signups to Opal will see the option to input a referral code; it is not possible to be credited for signups older than two weeks. The link your friends receive will automatically grant them a free month long trial of Opal Pro.

Add friends to share Screen Time

If you'd like to add an extra layer of accountability to your Opal experience, you can add friends and share your Screen Time. To do so, follow these steps:

  • Open the Opal app
  • Tap on your "Profile tab"
  • Tap "Add Friends"
  • A prompt will appear that says "Add your friends to see their Screen Time"
  • Tap "Give Permissions"
  • You will be routed to your device Settings
  • Under "Allow Opal to Access," toggle on "Contacts"
  • Return to Opal and navigate back to "Add Friends"
  • A list of your contacts with Opal will appear
  • Tap "Done"

It's important to note that if you'd like to successfully add friends on Opal, both of you must have your phone number linked to your account. If your phone number is not linked to your account, unfortunately, you will be unable to share your Screen Time data. Additionally, to see one another's Screen Time data, you must have both opened the Opal app in the past 24 hours.

I don't want a contact to see my Screen Time anymore!

If you no longer want a specific contact to view your Screen Time information, you can easily remove them. To do so, follow these steps:

  • Open the Opal app
  • Tap on your "Profile tab"
  • Tap on the icon to the right of "Friends Screen Time"
  • Beside the contact you'd like to remove, tap "..."
  • Click "Stop sharing"

That'sΒ it! If you have any issues with your referrals, please follow the steps listed above. If that doesn't sort the issue out, please contact us using the instructions here.
