โœ… What You'll Need

๐Ÿ“ Step 2: Register Your Account

To register, send:

Groupie register <your name>

Example:

  • โœ…Groupie will auto-detect your phone number and create your account.
  • โœ…You'll also get a randomly generated password in case you want to log into the web dashboard.

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿคโ€๐Ÿง‘ Step 3: Add Groupie to Your WhatsApp Group
