@eb001

Do your siblings have gmail addresses? (That’s required.)

Glad you got it working. I have sent many requests for Google to issue a better error message telling people that ONLY gmail accounts work. And here we are years later and they still haven't fixed it.

@EmptyNester

Agreed. "Can't send invite right now" should say something like "A Google (gmail) Account is required for an invitation."

I went ahead and reported it again. But I image the backlog at this point must be enormous. Fingers crossed they fix this one as it will take a programmer all of 30 seconds to fix this.
