Short answers to what people ask most often. For detail, open a topic from the help centre or ask the assistant on the main help page.
What does Hope & Wonder actually ask?
Instead of "Tell us about yourself," we ask who or what is giving you hope or making you wonder — in up to 60 seconds of voice or in your own words.
Is there a feed, likes, or comments?
No algorithms, likes, or comments. It is shared attention directed outward, not another performance stage.
How do I sign up?
Create an account at Sign up, confirm your email, then sign in to access your space and start sharing.
Can I edit my transcript before publishing?
Yes. After recording, use Edit on the transcript, then continue through review. Nothing is public until you publish.
How do I register my organisation as a network?
Apply for a network page using the form at Help → Apply for a network (or on the Wonder Networks page). That is separate from personal Sign up. We usually respond within a few days.
What do I get as a network?
A branded network page, a unique QR code, and every member profile that joins through your link appearing in your orbit.
Do members need to download an app?
No app is required. They scan your QR or open your link, share hope or wonder, and their profile appears on your page.
Where do network managers find the join link and signup QR?
Sign in, open My networks, and use the ⋮ menu on your network card (look for the Admin pill). Choose Sign up page or Signup QR. You can also use the ⋮ menu on the public network page when signed in as a manager.
I joined a network — how do I get the join link or QR for someone else?
Join and signup QR codes are only shown to network managers, not ordinary members. Ask your network manager (organisation or event host) to share the invite link or print the signup QR for new people.
What is the difference between the network page and the signup page?
The network page is public — who is in the network and what they have shared. The signup (join) page is where new people create an account and join. Managers share the signup link or QR; members can copy the network page link to show the live page.
Is Hope & Wonder free?
Yes for individuals. Organisations hosting networks are invited to make a voluntary contribution to keep the platform independent.
