Settings
Finding Settings

Tap it to open your settings.
Notifications

You can choose whether you want the app to send you reminders and updates.
- Go to Settings
- Find "Notifications"
- Turn notifications on or off as you prefer
What notifications mean:
- On — You'll receive helpful reminders about events, messages, and updates
- Off — The app won't interrupt you, but you'll need to open it to see what's new
Quick Help: If you find notifications annoying, you can turn them off. If you keep missing things, try turning them on. Either choice is perfectly fine.
Account Settings

In Settings, you might also find options for:
- Changing your email address
- Changing your password
- Other account-related options
Quick Help: If you need to change your password, this is the place to do it.
Signing Out

If you want to sign out of the app:
- Go to Settings
- Find "Sign Out" or "Log Out"
- Tap it
- Confirm when asked
You can always sign back in later with your email and password.
Quick Help: Signing out is useful if you're using someone else's phone or want to switch accounts.
What Happens When You Sign Out
When you sign out:
- You'll be taken back to the sign-in screen
- Your information stays safe — nothing is deleted
- You can sign back in anytime and everything will be there
If You're Stuck
If your new photo doesn't appear immediately:
- Close the app and open it again
- Your photo should show up
If you can't find a setting you're looking for:
- Try going back to the main Settings screen
- Look through the different options
- Settings can sometimes be tucked away in unexpected places
If you've signed out and can't remember your password, use "Forgot Password" on the sign-in screen.
