In this article
Before you start (3 checks)
- You have an account in the app: the Web Version uses the same account as the app. If you use the app with "Use Without Signing In", you can't use the Web Version yet. Sign up from the top of More in the app. The data on that device moves to your account.
- Your sign-in method: the Web Version supports Apple, Google, and email and password. Use the same method as in the app (Apple if you use Apple in the app, Google if you use Google). Not sure which one? In the app, tap your name at the top of More to see it.
- A browser on your computer: use a recent version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox.
Sign in
- Open the address: open famshare.pages.dev in a browser on your computer. You can also copy the address in the app: More > Web Version.
- Sign in the same way as in the app: if you use Apple in the app, choose "Sign in with Apple"; if you use Google, choose "Sign in with Google". If you use an email address, enter the same email address and password and choose "Sign In". If you forgot your password, enter your email address and choose "Forgot Password" to get an email to reset it.
- When your calendar appears, you're done: you see the same data as in the app. The Web Version is in English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese or Korean. It follows your browser's language, and you can change it at the top right.
- Switch groups: as in the app, the badge at the top switches between All, Mine and each of your groups.
If you see "To use FamShare on the web, you need the app first": this account doesn't have a calendar yet. Calendars are created in the app. If you already use the app, you are signed in with a different account: choose "Sign Out" and sign in again the same way as in the app. If you don't use the app yet, install it first and sign in with the same account to get started (even if you use "Create an Account" on the Web Version, your calendar is created in the app).
Viewing and editing (the video and 11:59 PM)
You can view any time, without a video. Only on days you want to add, edit or delete events, to-dos, notes, Board posts, date polls and so on, watch one video in the app on your phone.
- In the app on your phone, go to More > Web Version.
- Tap "Watch a Video to Edit on the Web Today" and watch the video to the end.
- In a few seconds, the status changes to "You can edit until 11:59 PM today". The Web Version also lets you edit after a short while (to start right away, reload the page).
- Until when: until 11:59 PM that day, in the time zone of the phone you watched the video on. The next day, the Web Version is view-only again. Watching more videos on the same day doesn't add more time.
- Your account only: if someone else in your family watches a video, it doesn't let you edit.
- When it's view-only: a "View only" banner appears at the top, and the add and edit buttons are turned off.
- When no video is available: if you see "No video is available right now," wait a little and tap "Try Again." The Web Version stays view-only until you watch a video, so on days you plan to edit, it's best to watch it early.
- If you see "It may take a moment to update": it can take a little while for the video to be recorded. Reopen the Web Version screen in the app a bit later.
With Invite Rewards: until December 31, 2026, you can also get 30 days of Web Version (editing on the web without a video) by inviting friends or family. See Invite Rewards. While a reward is active, the Web Version shows the date your editing time ends.
Around 11:59 PM: when your editing time ends, changes on the web that haven't been sent yet are not saved (the Web Version tells you). If you are editing late at night, save early.

FAQ
- Is the Web Version free?
- Yes. The Web Version is free and shows no ads. You can view any time. To add or edit, watch one video in the app on that day. With an Invite Reward, you can edit for 30 days without a video.
- Do I have to watch a video every day?
- Only on days you want to add or edit on the web. One video lets you edit until 11:59 PM that day. You never need a video just to view.
- I can't edit on the web (the buttons are turned off).
- Without a video (or an Invite Reward), the Web Version is view-only. Watch the video in the app: More > Web Version. If nothing changes after watching, reload the web page, and check that the app shows "You can edit until 11:59 PM today". You must be signed in to the Web Version with the same account you watched the video with.
- I signed in and see "To use FamShare on the web, you need the app first".
- This account doesn't have a calendar yet. If you don't use the app yet, install it first and sign in with the same account to get started. If you already use the app, you are signed in with a different account: choose "Sign Out" and sign in again the same way as in the app (Apple, Google or email, whichever you use in the app). To delete an account you created by mistake, sign in to the app with that method and use Delete Account, or email us.
- I see "This email address is registered with a different method (such as Apple)".
- The account for that email address was created with another method. Sign in with the button for the method you use in the app (for example, Apple).
- Which time zone is "11:59 PM"?
- 11:59 PM in the time zone of the phone you watched the video on. If your computer is in a different time zone, the Web Version shows that time converted to your computer's time.
- Can I use it without an account ("Use Without Signing In")?
- No. Sign up from the top of More in the app first. The data on that device moves to your account.
- If someone in my family watches the video, can I edit too?
- No. Only the account that watched the video can edit.
- Can I use it in a phone's browser?
- Yes, it opens. On a phone, though, we recommend the app, which has notifications.
- Which browsers work?
- Recent versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox. "Sign in with Apple" and "Sign in with Google" open a separate window, so if you block pop-ups, allow them for this site.
- Can I delete my account on the web?
- No. Use the app: More > Account > Delete Account.
What the Web Version saves in your browser, and what is sent when you watch the video, is described in our Privacy Policy. For other questions, see Support.
