How to Start a Nest

8 steps · ~3 minutes

A Nest is your team — up to 5 Eggs moving together through the challenge. As the Egg who creates the Nest, you become the NestStarter (Nest Leader). You’ll invite your crew, approve join requests, and keep everyone moving.

1. Build Your Nest

Step 1 — Choose Your Path

When prompted to form a Nest, select Start a Nest and tap Continue to begin building.

Step 2 — The Nest Setup Form

Tap the photo area to upload a Nest image. Enter your Nest name and a motto to give your crew some identity.

Step 3 — Name & Personalize

Fill in your Nest name and motto. Toggle List my Nest as open if you want other Eggs to find and request to join your Nest from the discovery screen.

Tip: A public Nest fills up faster. Keep it private if you only want specific people.
