23−With Groups open, you'll see three boxes for **My Channels**, your local weather, and a stylized clock. You can dig into those later, but let's focus on joining new communities, which is likely one of the reasons you wanted to try out Urbit in the first place.
23+First, Open the Groups app.
25−Click on Join Group, and in that modal, enter [~bitbet-bolbel/urbit-community](/groups/~bitbet-bolbel/urbit-community) — the official Urbit community. You can either automatically join all channels by clicking the Join all channels checkbox, or leave it blank and hit Join Group right away. Your Urbit will connect to the P2P network and download information about the group, like a list of all its participants. When that's finished, click **View Group**.
25+Then click on "Find Groups" in the left column. Enter [~bitbet-bolbel/urbit-community](/groups/~bitbet-bolbel/urbit-community) — the official Urbit community. Click the "Join" button when you see the group listing.
27−You're now looking at a single group and all of its channels. If you didn't choose to join all channels right away, click on an individual channel and then **Join Channel**, which immediately opens the feed of latest messages.
27+Give it a minute, and the group will load its default channels. To join additional channels in the group, click the "All Channels" button.
