Text capture is optional. Consent comes first.

This page documents the complete opt-in flow for Greta Text Message Capture. The program is for authenticated teachers who connect and verify their own mobile number.

See the real consent step

The live control is inside Greta after sign-in. These two sanitized captures show the same synthetic number before and after the teacher gives separate, affirmative consent. The unchecked state includes a separate Continue without text messages action; the checked state shows Send code available after affirmative consent. This page is documentation only: it has no phone field, checkbox, submit action, or public enrollment path.

Unchecked state: Send code stays disabled, but the separate optional path lets the teacher continue using Greta without text messages.

The checkbox is never preselected. The teacher can continue without text messages, or check it before requesting a code; Send code remains unavailable until consent is given.

Verifiable flow

How a teacher opts in

  1. 1

    Open the connection

    The teacher signs in and opens Settings → Connections → Text messages.

  2. 2

    Choose whether to receive texts

    The teacher can leave the separate consent box unchecked and continue using Greta without text messages, or check it to set up SMS.

  3. 3

    Verify only if opted in

    Greta sends a one-time code only after affirmative consent. The teacher enters the code before text capture is enabled.

  4. 4

    Stay in control

    Reminders remain off until separately enabled. The teacher can reply STOP or disconnect the number in Settings.
