Chumsy is a mobile application that can be used to connect people through their shared passions. Put simply - in Chumsy application you can publish your events or register for participation in sports and lifestyle events already published by other Chumsys. Do you miss the company during your morning jogging? Do you want to meet your neighbors while walking with a dog? Fancy an evening of board games? Or maybe you are going on vacation and you want to take part in events organized by local Chumsys?

This is just the beginning of the list of possibilities that the application gives you. Become part of the Chumsy Community and enjoy countless opportunities.

8. If you are a trainer in certain sport disciplines or you conduct classes in one of the lifestyle areas mark yourself as a Master and in the next step select the appropriate field/category. You can choose more than one field/category. More information on Master status can be found in the answer to the question "What is Master status?" below.
9. Hello Chumsy! Your account is already active. Take part in events and create your own events by developing the Chumsy Community!

Master status means that a given User is a coach of a selected sports discipline or conducts classes in one of the lifestyle categories. Apart from adding regular events, by marking yourself as a Master, the User becomes an option to also add events where he/she acts as a trainer/lecturer.

Remember! - Master status can be changed at any time in the "Profile" - "Edit Profile" - "Are you a Master?" tab.

You can set Master Status:

1. During the account registration process - marking yourself as a Master and then selecting a sports discipline/lifestyle category.
2. At any time in the "Profile" - "Edit Profile" - "Are you a Master?" tab.

After logging in to the application, a map with your location marked will appear on the screen. Mint pins located on this map show the location of events in your area.

You can search for events in 4 ways:

1. By clicking on the pins on the map and then on the details of the event. You can change the search area by zooming in or out of the map view.
2. Displaying the list of events by clicking on the black icon of 3 lines in the right lower corner of the map.
3. By entering the phrase describing the discipline/category you are interested in in the search bar at the top of the map.
4. Using the filters that you can find in the map view by clicking on the filters icon on the right side of the search bar.

Your location is marked with a blue dot on the map. If you are too far away on the map, in order to find your location click the black icon with a white arrow at the bottom right part of the screen.

When searching for events that interest you, Chumsy App gives you many options for precise filtering. You can choose:

1. A sport category, lifestyle discipline or author's events from the Name it! category. Remember - if you do not have precise plans you can choose an unlimited number of categories.

   More details on the Name it! category you will find in the answer to the question “What is the category "Name it!"?”.

2. Time and date of the event.
3. Location of the event.
4. Paid and free events. For paid events, the price spreads.
5. If you need help of a Master - a trainer in a given field of sport or a teacher in a given lifestyle category.
6. If you want to view public events or only events organized by your friends in Chumsy application.
7. Your Chumsy’s level.
8. If the event will take place outdoor or in a closed facility.
9. Your Chumsy’s gender.
10. Your Chumsy's age range.

Are you interested in a given event but you need time to declare your willingness to participate in it? No problem - save the event for later and come back at any time. Click on the flag icon at the top of the event on the right.

All saved events can be found in the "My Events" - "Saved" tab. Here you can view saved events, report your willingness to participate in a given event and delete events that you ultimately decide not to take part in.

Did you find an interesting event that you would like to take part in? Great!

Click on the details of the event and then on the "Apply" button. As soon as the host accepts your willingness to participate the event will be confirmed and its details can be found in the "My Events" - "Planned" tab.

At this stage, the following payment methods are possible:

1. Cash settlement at the event.
2. Online payment via the application.

The availability of the above options at a given event depends on the settings selected by the event host.

We plan to introduce payments for events using Chumsy Coins in the near future - details coming soon. Stay tuned!

To pay for your event go to "My Events" - "Planned" and click "Proceed to payment" in the event. If you cannot see "Proceed to payment" button that means the host has not accepted your application to the event yet.

Do you have an idea for an event you want to invite Chumsys to? So let's go!

1. On the main screen with the map view click on the "Create an event" button at the bottom of the screen.
2. If you are a Master, indicate whether you are creating the event as a Master in your field or individually.
3. Choose detailed criteria that will best describe your event idea. Also, add a description of the event that will be visible to potential participants.
4. If you want, you can change the standard picture of the event to your own picture referring to the theme of the event - do it using the "Change a picture" tab.
5. Publish the event by clicking on "Create an event" tab.

While creating the list of sports and lifestyle categories we tried to indicate as many opportunities as possible for each Chumsy to find his/her passions and interests. Lists of fields and categories are updated on an ongoing basis based on the suggestions of our Users. However, we know that our Chumsys have endless ideas and nothing limits their imagination which is why we created the Name it! category.

Name it! is an option under which Chumsy, who has not found his/her idea for an event in the proposed areas/categories can create an original event by himself/herself.

All participants of a given event can add photos to the event by clicking the plus icon on the right side of the "Photos" tab on a given event. You can add photos both during the event and after it ends. In addition, each participant of the event can download onto his/her mobile device any photos shared in this event by other Users - has it ever been easier to exchange photos? :)

The option to send messages to other Users activates itself in three cases:

1. When the User is your friend on Chumsy App.
2. When a given User is not your friend on Chumsy App but is the host of the event in which you participate.
3. When the given User is not your friend on Chumsy App but you are the host of the event in which. the given User takes part.

The possibility of group chat appears when the event is attended by more than two people (host and participant). In such a situation the event host has the opportunity to open a group chat. In such case all participants can chat with each other through the group chat. The participant is not able to start a group chat first.

As part of your Chumsy account you can create your own community by inviting other Chumsys to your group of friends and accepting their invitations. In the "Feed" tab you can publish photos of past events, as well as events created by you - both public and private - directed only to the group of your Chumsy friends. In the "Friends" tab you can read the content posted by your Chumsy friends.

Yes, but only if you indicated that the post should be visible to the entire community while publishing the content. Otherwise, only people who are among your Chumsy friends can see the content you post on the Feed.

The possibility to add Chumsy to your group of Chumsy friends is displayed after opening the profile of a given Chumsy. You can search for new Chumsys by going to the "Community" tab and clicking on the plus icon in the upper right corner. You have 3 search options:

1. Via your contact list on a mobile device.
2. Via e-mail address.
3. Via username in Chumsy App.
