Can my partner see a shared plan without seeing the chat behind it?

Yes. Each adult uses a separate Lumstead account. A chat stays with the person who started it. You can save the part your partner needs as a shared note. Sharing that note gives the household access to its contents, without exposing the original conversation.

What you need

Family, Chat, and Notes

Each adult needs their own sign-in. The household owner creates an invitation for the other adult’s email address. Each person pairs their own devices from their own account.

  1. Start the conversation in your account.

    Suppose you are planning a surprise dinner. Keep the gift idea, your budget, and the restaurant shortlist in your private chat. A shared login cannot keep two people’s conversations separate.

  2. Share only the detail the other person needs.

    Create a note that says “Keep Friday from 7 to 9 free.” Set it to shared and check the exact text before saving. Everyone with access to that household note can read it, including other adults in the home.

  3. Check the result from the other account.

    Ask your partner to open Notes on their own device. They should see the Friday plan. The original discussion stays in your account. This check is also a useful first step when setting up a new household.

Keep the limits clear.

These rules govern access inside the app. A remote AI provider receives the question and context sent to it. A backup of the entire home server can contain private records from multiple people. Protect server access and backups separately.

Before you start

Can a household owner open another adult’s chats in the app?

No. The owner can manage membership. That role does not give them access to another adult’s private chats.

Can I share a note with just one adult in a larger household?

The note’s shared setting applies to the household. Use that setting only when all household members with access may read it.
