Settings is where you change the details behind your business and your own account. That includes your foundable’s name and logo, who works with you, your plan and credits, and the emails you get. It opens in a window on top of the page you’re on. Ted can change some settings for you too, but only after you say yes.
The Settings window with its sections listed on the left and your account details on the right.

​
Open Settings

  • Press your initial or photo at the top right to open the account menu, then choose Settings. Settings opens on Account.
  • Or press your foundable’s name at the top left, then Settings. Settings opens on General.

​
What’s in Settings

Settings has three groups. Each section shows a short line under its heading that says what it’s for.

​
Foundable

These sections are about the foundable you have open.

​
Billing & credits

​
Account

These sections are yours, whichever foundable you have open.

​
Your account

Account holds what’s about you, not your business. Under Danger zone, Delete account deletes your account and every foundable you own. See Privacy and deleting your data.

​
Your local time and Foundable time

There are two clocks, and they do different jobs:
  • Your local time, in Account, is yours. It’s used for your personal notifications, and it doesn’t change the time Schedule uses.
  • Foundable time, in General, belongs to the business: “The local time for this foundable’s briefs and schedules.” Only the owner can change it.

​
Language, light and dark

The account menu’s rows: Settings, Language, Appearance with light, dark and system choices, Reduce effects and Tutorial hub.
  • Language: choose it in Account, or from Language in the account menu. The first choice, Automatic, shows in brackets the language it’s using now. After it, every language Foundable comes in is listed by its own name. Your choice is saved to your account, and the page reloads in that language.
  • Appearance: in the account menu, choose Light, Dark or System (which follows your device). This choice is for this device only. Foundable shows Light until you pick one.
  • Reduce effects: in the account menu, it holds decorative motion still on this device.
On a phone, you’ll find Language, Appearance and Reduce effects under Account in More.

​
Save your changes

General, Account and Notifications share one Save changes bar. It shows only while you have a change that isn’t saved yet. Your logo and photo save on their own when you press Save after cropping.

​
Who can change what

Everyone in your foundable can open Settings. What they can change depends on their role: Someone with view-only access can look at a foundable’s settings but can’t change them. Where a control isn’t yours to use, the app says “Only the owner or an admin” or “Only the owner”. To learn about roles, see Invite your team.

​
Let Ted change settings for you

Ask Ted in the chat, and he can suggest a change for you. It can be your foundable’s name, tagline or time zone, your own name or time zone, any Notifications setting, or this device’s appearance. He shows the change on a card titled Change your settings or Change your foundable’s settings. It says “Nothing changes until you confirm. You can change it back in Settings.” Press Confirm to make the change, or Decline to leave everything as it is. Saying yes in your next message works too.
