How to set up your first Quota group

By the Quota team · Updated

Short answer: Open app.hitquota.app and add it to your home screen, sign up with an email and password, then make a group. Name the goal, choose which days it applies to, and share the group's invite link with your friends. Post your first photo or clip before midnight and your streak starts.

1. Install Quota

Quota is a web app. Open app.hitquota.app in Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android, then add it to your home screen. Reminders and the camera work once it's installed. Full steps in installing Quota on iPhone and Android.

2. Sign up

You need an email and a password. Quota emails a code to check the address is yours, and then you pick a username. Your email is never shown to anyone.

3. Make a group

Give the group a name. Two people is enough; it was built for a handful of people who actually know each other.

4. Set the quota

  • The goal, in your own words, like "50 pushups" or "Read 10 pages". See how to pick a daily goal.
  • Active days. Every day, or only the days you choose. Days outside them leave streaks alone.
  • A forfeit, if you want one. It's optional. See forfeit ideas.

5. Invite your friends

Share the group's invite link by text or in your group chat. Anyone who opens it can join after signing up. Friends can also find you by username.

6. Post your first proof

Do the goal, then post a photo or a clip of up to ten seconds with Quota's camera before midnight where you are. Your group sees it straight away, and your streak begins.

Optional extras

  • Add a challenge wheel for variety.
  • Turn on notifications for the evening reminder.
  • Use the group chat for everything that isn't proof.
