🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A dedicated family plan troubleshooting dashboard that allows users to see the status of linked accounts and manually invite/re-invite members.
  2. A human-verified support ticketing system that flags 'billing/access' issues for priority review instead of sending automated FAQ responses.
  3. A clear, step-by-step visual guide for family plan setup that explicitly addresses common 'payment prompt' errors for existing free-tier users.
