Buhata Share: one link, no sign up

How Buhata Share hands somebody a chore, a grocery list or a week, with nothing for them to install and nothing to join.

Some of the people who need to see something in Buhata are never going to install it. A relative doing the Wednesday run, a neighbor feeding the cat, someone helping out who has no reason to install anything. Buhata Share exists for exactly them: it turns one thing into a private web page and gives you a link.

What you can share

A chore, the grocery list, a set of tasks, a trip itinerary, and the Handoff Card. Money is never shareable, in any plan, and neither is health.

How to make one

Look for the share icon in the header of the thing you want to share, or the Share button on the row itself. Give it a title, choose how many days it should live, and press Create the link. You get a QR code as well as the link, because half the time the person is standing next to you.

One link per thing

Each thing keeps one live link. Press Create again and you get the same link back. A list you've shared twice never exists in two versions with two sets of ticks. To get a new link, cancel the old one first. That closes the page for anyone still holding it.

What the person on the other end can do

Read it, and tick things off. On a grocery list they can cross items as they buy them and you see it. On a chore they can say it's done, which arrives as a request you approve rather than as a fact. Nobody holding a link can delete anything, change your data, or see anything you didn't put on that page. First names only, never a full name.

Adding to a link after you sent it

A grocery list changes after you have shared it, so the link can learn. Open the Shared links manager from the share icon at the top of Family, find the list, and press Update. Items you added appear on the page, and anything already crossed off stays crossed off.

How they end

Every link lasts as long as you chose. When it runs out, we delete the code from our side for good. You can also end one early: cancel sharing on the card, or revoke it from the Shared links manager. The page closes at once for everyone.

What is never on a link

Money and health, ever. A pet's microchip number. A teacher's name. Anybody's packing list. Homework and results. The app itself refuses all of those, so nothing depends on us remembering to leave them out.

Try it on the free plan.

No card, no countdown.
