Selecting Groups from the Options tab provides Administrators with the ability to manage groups. Managing groups consists of creating new groups, modifying group members, assigning check-in schedules, and deleting groups.

Administrators and Monitors can perform actions on an entire group, such as Request Location, Request Check-In, Send Text Message, Enable Check-In Schedule and Disable Check-In Schedule.
