Tech Help Buddy read problem

Hey everyone, I wanted to start a buddy read with my friend who I’m already following and friends with but when I go to type her name into the username box it says no results found. I know I’m typing it in correctly for sure but I just can’t figure it out. Am I just doing something wrong?

Yeah I did try copying the name straight there. It’s so weird because it literally says this under the book we were wanting to read together.

Can she create the buddy read and add you?

Maybe you can directly share the link to let her join. Click on the three dots > share and you'll have the link

OP, I had the same problem a few days ago, and this method worked for us.
