Give access without your password
Let somebody help with one thing, without handing over the keys to everything.
Almost anything can be shared by invitation. You name the person; they get in as themselves.
A password is the whole house at once, and cannot be taken back a room at a time.
Key points
- An invitation lets somebody in as themselves, not as you
- A password you gave away cannot be taken back
What to remember
- An invitation can be withdrawn. A password cannot.
- Invite people in. Never hand over the key.
