Get started for managers
Troopr Check-ins help you run standups, retrospectives and other agile ceremonies async.
1. Locate the Troopr Assistant app (one time)
If you can’t find Troopr under the App’s section on your Slack workspace, click on the Add App in the Slack sidebar and search for Troopr Assistant. Select Troopr so that it will start showing up under the Apps in Slack. We recommend that you star the Troopr Assistant app for easier accessiblity later.

3. Setup cross time zone check-in
When configuring Check-in for a team with members in different time zones, you may want them to respond at a time that corresponds to their time zone. Troopr allows you to schedule Check-ins to execute at the user's local time zone. Read more here.
