Famly's layout has been designed to be intuitive, easy to pick up, and speedy to use. When you log in to the app, you will find your personal profile, notifications, messages, and the search function on the top right of the page. Your tools and features are all neatly stored in the icons that run down the left-hand side of the page in your sidebar. Your actions then take place in the middle of the page.
This video gives you a quick overview of what you can expect to see on Famly.
