Set up your first project with the setup guide

The setup guide starts on its own the first time you sign in. It creates your first project and takes about two minutes. You can change everything it sets later.

Go through the steps#

The guide shows Step 1 of 5 and a progress bar at the top.

1. Welcome to RenovU. Choose your Language and Units (metric or imperial), then select Continue.
2. Your project. Optionally pick a template at the top. Enter a Project name: it's the only thing the guide needs. Add the Country, Town or city and Property type if you like, then select Create project.
3. Rooms. Tick the rooms you're working on. The suggestions follow the property type you chose, and the most common ones start ticked. Type any others under Other rooms, separated with commas (for example: Porch, Cellar). Select Continue.
4. Budget and timeline. Enter an Overall budget and its Currency, and a Target completion date. All optional. Select Continue.
5. You're set up. Select Show me around for the tour, or Take me to my project.

Skip what you don't need#

• Skip this step moves on without saving that step. Every step but the project name has it.
• Back returns to the step before.
• Skip setup, at the top, ends the guide and takes you to the dashboard. It won't start again unless you ask for it.

If you close the browser part-way through, the guide picks up where you left off the next time you open RenovU.

We never ask for an address. Country and town are as precise as it gets.

Run it again later#

1. Open the Help home page while you're signed in.
2. Under Run the setup guide again, select Open the setup guide.

Nothing you've already set up changes unless you change it. If you already have a project, step 2 offers Carry on with it, so you can add rooms or a budget to it, or you can start a new project if your plan has room for one.

People who join RenovU from a project invitation skip the setup guide and land in that project.
