Sharing profiles: send, accept, and approve invitations
Sharing a Walmart Wellness app profile helps family and caregivers stay organized and coordinated—so everyone has access to the same information. Anyone sharing a profile can view, add, and edit all information for the profile shared (e.g. Medications, Journal, Calendar, etc)—except for personal profile data.
How sharing works
- Share as many profiles as needed.
- Invite as many people to share a profile as needed.
- A separate share invitation is sent for every profile shared—and every person invited to share.
- An invited person must accept the share invitation first (via email) before gaining shared profile access.
- Share invites sent from non-account owners must be approved by the account owner first (via email).
- When a share invite is accepted, the sender (and anyone else sharing) will receive a notification.
- If information changes in a shared profile, anyone sharing has access to the updates.
- Anyone with shared access can view, add, and edit all information in a shared profile—except for personal profile data.
- Account owners of a shared profile can remove an individual's shared access at any time.
