To change or add an admin on your Covenant Eyes account, you need to grant admin permissions to another member via the account settings. This process allows you to either have co-admins or transfer your admin rights entirely.
Steps to Change or Add an Admin
Based on the provided information (dated October 17, 2024), here is how you can grant administrative permissions to another member on your Covenant Eyes account:
- Access Account Settings: Tap on "Account" within the Covenant Eyes application or website.
- Select Member: Tap on the name of the member within your account whom you wish to make an Admin.
- Manage Account Permissions: Under the section labeled "Account Admins," tap the box next to "Manage my account."
- Choose Admin Type: You will be prompted to select the type of admin permission:
- Co-Admins: Select this option if you want the member to share Admin responsibilities with you.
- Give away your Admin permission: Select this option if you want to transfer your Admin rights to this member and potentially relinquish your own Admin status.
- Confirm Changes: Tap "Confirm" to save the changes and grant the selected member Admin permissions.
Understanding Admin Roles
When you change or add an admin, you are essentially giving another person control over certain aspects of the Covenant Eyes account configuration.
- Co-Admins: Both you and the selected member will have administrative privileges, allowing multiple people to manage account settings, members, and potentially reporting.
- Transferring Admin: This option shifts the primary administrative control to the selected member. It's important to understand the implications if you are giving away your sole Admin permission.
This process allows for flexible account management, enabling trusted family members or partners to help manage the Covenant Eyes protection plan.
