Talk · Group chat
a group chat that knows about your plans.
Every crew has a real-time chat. It has what you would expect, like threads, reactions and photos, plus things a normal group chat cannot do, like linking straight to an event on your calendar.
Chat is great, until it is also the calendar
Group chats are where groups live, so they end up doing every job: announcements, planning, polls, photo albums and banter, all in one stream. The important message is always the one you cannot find.
Crews keeps the fun of a group chat and gives each job a proper home. Plans live on the calendar and get their own event chat. Important messages get pinned. Side conversations go into threads. And when someone asks “which Saturday?”, you can reply with a #mention of the actual event.
How it works
group chat, step by step.
- 1
Open the crew chat
Every crew has one from day one. Messages appear in real time, with typing indicators so you know a reply is coming.
- 2
Keep side topics in threads
Reply in a thread so a tangent does not bury the main conversation.
- 3
Link people and plans
@mention someone to notify them, or #mention an event to drop a link to it right in the message.
- 4
Pin what matters
Admins and moderators pin the messages people keep asking about, like the meeting spot or the house rules.
The details
what you get.
Threads and reactions
Reply in threads, react with emoji, and keep the main chat readable even when it is busy.
@mentions that notify
Mention someone and they get a notification, even if they have muted the general noise.
#event mentions
Type # to link an event from your calendar. One tap takes people to the details and the RSVP.
Pinned messages
Admins and moderators can pin messages, so the essentials are one tap away instead of 500 messages up.
Photos and polls
Share images in the chat and run quick polls without leaving the conversation.
Jump to message
Tap a pinned message, a reply or a mention and jump straight to the original in context.
Is Crews chat real-time?
Yes. Messages, reactions and typing indicators update live for everyone in the crew.
Can I reply in threads?
Yes. Start a thread from any message to keep side conversations out of the main chat.
What is a #event mention?
Typing # lets you pick an event from your crew calendar and link it in your message, so people can open it and RSVP without searching.
Who can pin messages?
Crew admins and moderators. Pinned messages are easy to find from the chat.
Are there voice or video calls?
No. Crews chat is text, reactions, polls and photos. It is built around planning and doing things in person.
