Who it's for — a group

The partner model, scaled to a group

A recovery group sponsor, a small-group leader, or anyone running a peer-support circle can extend the same commitment-device model beyond a single pair. A group admin panel lets one trusted person hold unlock authority for several members at once, with a shared space to talk without any of it turning into surveillance of what anyone actually browsed.

How a group is actually structured

One person runs the group admin panel and functions as the unlock authority for every member who joins it — the same non-negotiable rule as a one-to-one partnership: members can always add protection themselves, and only the admin can remove it.

Members keep the same privacy guarantee as anywhere else in squeevio — the admin sees which categories and domains are blocked per member and each device's status, never browsing history, messages, or calls.

A group carries its own chat, configurable as fully open, admin-only, or system-notifications-only, so a group can decide for itself how much peer conversation it wants alongside the filtering — the point of the space is support, not another feed to monitor.

What a group gets that a single pairing doesn't

• One admin, many members

  A sponsor or small-group leader doesn't need a separate one-to-one arrangement with every person they support — the group panel covers the whole cohort.

• Configurable visibility and openness

  A group can be open (anyone with the link can join) or closed (admin approval required), and its call scope can be limited to group members only if that fits the group's purpose better.

• A shared space that isn't a surveillance feed

  Group chat exists for the kind of check-in conversation peer-support groups already have — it is not a window into anyone's individual browsing, which stays exactly as private as it is in a one-to-one pairing.

• The same intervention screen, per member

  Every member gets the same breathing exercise, written reason, and one-tap-call tool at the moment of a blocked attempt — a group setup doesn't trade away the individual support layer.

What this isn't

• Not an activity-monitoring dashboard for the admin

  A group admin cannot see what any member browsed, wrote, or said — the same privacy boundary that applies to a single partner applies at group scale, deliberately, even though the admin holds authority over more than one person's unlock.

• Not a replacement for the group's own program

  This is infrastructure underneath a recovery program, a church small group, or a peer-support circle — not a program by itself. It removes one specific point of failure (a member quietly turning their own filter off) without replacing the human structure that does the rest of the work.

Questions group leaders ask

Do members have to know an admin holds unlock authority?

Yes, by design — joining a group and accepting an admin as the unlock authority is a choice each member makes, mirroring the one-to-one partner model where the protected person always consents to the arrangement.

Can members leave the group?

Yes, a member can unlink from a group the same way a person can unlink from a one-to-one partner — this is not designed to trap anyone.

How is this different from just being everyone's individual accountability partner?

Functionally similar per member, but the group panel gives the admin one place to manage several members instead of juggling separate one-to-one pairings, plus an optional shared chat space for group check-ins.

Is this a fit for a workplace wellness program?

It can be, as long as participation is voluntary and each participant consents to their own unlock authority sitting with the group admin — the same consent principle that rules out using this to monitor someone without their agreement anywhere else on this site.
