Change your profile and preferences

Your profile and your preferences are both in the account menu — your photo or initial at the right of the top bar. Nothing there is required: FlowChord never asks you to fill in a profile before you use it.

Steps

Edit your profile

1. Open the account menu and choose Profile.
2. To add a photo, press Add photo (or Replace photo), pick an image, frame it with Zoom, and press Apply photo.
3. Change your Name or Email if you like.
4. Press Save profile. If you changed your e-mail, FlowChord sends a code to the new address: type it and press Verify and save.

Change your preferences

1. Open the account menu and choose Preferences.
2. Pick a Language and a Theme. The app changes as you pick, so you can see the result before you keep it.
3. Set the switches under Improve FlowChord and Privacy.
4. Press Save. Cancel puts everything back as it was.

Options

Setting	What it does
Language	English, Português or Español. It is your account’s language: the app on every device you sign in on, the e-mails FlowChord sends you, and the website in this browser
Theme	Light, Dark, or System to follow your device
Use my corrections to improve FlowChord	The audio of your recordings and the chords and tabs you correct and export train FlowChord’s own chord and tab detection, without your name, lyrics or video. A tab you export stays as a training example (its notes only) after you delete the project. Turn it off to keep yours out of every future training set and delete those examples
Measure how I use FlowChord	Whether FlowChord measures how you use it — see Analytics and privacy choices
Record my sessions	Whether the app’s screens may be recorded to find what went wrong; it needs measuring on
Billing	The country you pay from, which sets the currency of your prices and balance. You can change it until your first top-up or paid video; after that, it says your balance’s currency

Tips

• Your photo is optional. To take it off, press Remove and save.
• Before you pick a language, FlowChord uses the one your device shows; a new account in Brazil starts in Portuguese. Once you pick one here, it stays your account’s language.
• How chord names are written — the Brazilian cifra or the international notation — isn’t a preference: you choose it in each project’s Chords tab, and your last pick is used for your next project. See Chord name notation.
• Your Profile and Preferences are also on your phone, in the same account menu.

Common problems

• The profile won’t save without a name. The profile form needs a name and an e-mail to save. Type any name you like.
• The photo isn’t accepted. A message says why: the file isn’t an image, or it is too large. Pick a smaller picture, such as a JPG or PNG.
• This email is already in use by another account. Another FlowChord account uses that address. Keep your current e-mail, or sign in to the other account.
• The code to confirm your new e-mail didn’t arrive. Check your spam folder, then press Resend code.
• The language changed by itself. Your language belongs to your account: picking one on another device, or on the website, changes it everywhere.
