Add a follower to your Check-ins so another person can view and interact with your submissions. When added, the follower immediately gains access to all submitted Check-ins — including past submissions — and receives a notification each time you submit a new one.
Before You Begin
- You must have access to Check-ins. See Configure Check-in access and frequency settings if Check-ins are not visible in your account.
- To request access to follow someone else's Check-ins instead, see Request to follow someone's Check-ins.
Add a Follower
- Click the Settings gear icon in the bottom-left corner of your 15Five account.
- Select My settings from the dropdown menu.
- Click the Check-in visibility tab at the top of the page.
- Click the Followers box to display your current followers list.
- Click Add Followers.
- Find the teammate you want to add.
- Click Add Follower to the right of their name.
What success looks like: The person's name appears in your Followers list immediately. No acceptance is required from the follower — they have access as soon as you add them.
Remove a Follower
- Click the Settings gear icon in the bottom-left corner of your 15Five account.
- Select My settings from the dropdown menu.
- Click the Check-in visibility tab at the top of the page.
- Click the Followers box to display your current followers list.
- Click Remove Follower to the right of the person you want to remove.
What success looks like: The person's name no longer appears in your Followers list.
