Watch Duty Teams: Account Owner vs. Admin

  • Updated

Watch Duty Teams accounts have two management roles: account owner and admin. Both can help manage your team, but only the account owner can manage billing and purchase additional membership seats.

Account owner

Each Watch Duty Teams account has one account owner. The owner role is tied to the account’s billing and membership.

The account owner can:

  • Purchase additional membership seats
  • Assign purchased seats to team members
  • Remove team members from purchased seats
  • Make other team members admins

Only the account owner can purchase additional seats.

Admins

Admins can help manage your team’s existing membership seats, but they cannot purchase additional seats.

Admins can:

  • Assign purchased seats to team members
  • Remove team members from purchased seats

If your team needs more seats, the account owner will need to purchase them.

Getting your team onboarded

If you need to onboard a large number of team members at once, Watch Duty Support can help with a bulk import.

Provide a spreadsheet containing three columns:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Email

Once members are added, each person will receive an email with instructions to create a password.

If a team member can't sign in

New members may have received a password setup email when their account was created. Ask them to check their inbox and spam or junk folder.

They can also reset their password at Watch Duty's password reset page using the email address associated with their Teams membership. For more information, see How to Log In, Reset Your Password, or Recover Your Watch Duty Account.

Members with an existing Apple subscription

If a team member previously purchased an individual Watch Duty membership through Apple, they will need to cancel that subscription themselves. Watch Duty does not have access to manage subscriptions purchased through Apple.

See Apple App Store Memberships: Login, Billing, and Cancellation Help for instructions.

For instructions on managing individual team members and membership seats, see How do I manage my Watch Duty Teams account and memberships?.
