Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don’t know my recruit's address?
You will need to wait until your recruit sends their address home. In some cases, you may also receive text notifications through Sandboxx after the recruit provides that information.
How can I update an address in Sandboxx?
Once you have the correct address, you can manually add or update it in the Sandboxx contact book under the recruit’s name.
Can I use Sandboxx with multiple recruits at different bases?
Yes, Sandboxx allows you to manage multiple recruits. Simply add their respective addresses to your contact list and select the appropriate one when sending letters. For example, if you had a recruit at Lackland Air Force Base and another at Fort Jackson, you could easily switch between them in the app.
