Troubleshooting Gatherpin

Fix common problems with invitations, codes, browser joining, map movement, location sharing, or notifications.

Quick answer

Check that the invitation belongs to the active meetup, internet access is working, location permission and sharing are enabled, and notifications are allowed by both Gatherpin and Android.

Gatherpin 1.1.0 on Android, captured on 22 September 2026. Controls may move slightly as the app improves.

Follow these steps

  1. 01

    Check the invitation

    Use the latest link or six-digit code from the host and make sure every digit is correct.

  2. 02

    Check your connection

    Gatherpin needs internet access for live positions, ETAs, invitations, and chat.

  3. 03

    Check location controls

    Allow location for the app or browser and enable Share My Location when you want to appear on the map.

  4. 04

    Check notifications

    Review Gatherpin settings and Android system permissions if messages or invitations do not alert you.

  5. 05

    Use a landmark indoors

    When GPS shifts inside a large building, follow the meeting pin and the latest chat instruction.
