My requests and connections

Both lists are in the WhatsApp chat with your community's number. Send the command, or send HELP and tap My requests or My connections in the menu.

My requests#

1. Send /requests. You get a list of your open requests, newest first, with where each one stands, for example "Waiting for you to confirm it", "A member is being asked" or "With the organisers".
2. Tap a request. You see the summary with Cancel request and Keep it.
3. Tap Cancel request to close it. Nobody else is asked, and an offer that's still waiting for an answer is withdrawn. If a member already had the offer, they're told it's closed and nothing was shared.

The list never says who is being asked. Once someone has agreed to help, the request can't be cancelled because their contact is on its way to you. Finished and closed requests don't appear.

My connections#

1. Send /connections. You get the people you were introduced to, newest first, up to 10, with what each introduction was about.
2. Tap a name. You see when you were introduced, with two buttons:
   • Send contact again sends you their WhatsApp number again, in a new message.
   • Hide removes the connection from your list. The other person isn't told, and it stays in their list.

Good to know#

• Only finished introductions appear: both of you accepted and both numbers were sent. A request that's still open, declined or expired never shows anyone's number.
• Send contact again works once a day for each connection, and up to 5 times a day in total. Before sending, Milvao checks that both of you still agree to share numbers for that introduction. If not, you see "That contact can't be shared any more."
• If the other person deleted their data, the connection disappears from your list.

Frequently asked questions#

Can I undo Hide?#

Not in the chat yet. Ask your community organisers if you need a hidden contact again.

Does cancelling a request tell the organisers?#

Yes. They see that you cancelled it, on the request's timeline.
