**Settings → My Profile holds everything that is yours rather than the account's: your name and sign-in security, how works are shown to you, which notifications you get, the mail account you send from, and the apps and devices connected to your login.**

Settings has two groups. **Personal** holds My Profile; **WrkLst account** holds everything that applies to the whole account. My Profile has six tabs.

## Name & Security

Under **User account** you see your **Name** and the **Email** you sign in with. To change the address, WrkLst sends a code to the new one; it changes everywhere, in every WrkLst account you belong to, once you confirm, and only you can change it. The **Password** is changed from the login screen: **Sign out to reset password**, then use **Forgot account?**.

*Name & Security: 1 Password · 2 Enable two-factor authentication · 3 Register a passkey*


**Two-factor authentication** adds a second sign-in step with an authenticator app, and **Passkeys** lets you sign in with Touch ID, Windows Hello, a security key or your phone. Both are explained in [Signing in: one login, passkeys and two-factor authentication](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1790900002-signing-in-one-login-passkeys-and-two-factor-authentication).

If you belong to more than one WrkLst account, the tab also holds **Ask me which account when I sign in**, the **Account tabs** switch and the **Account order**; see [Working in several WrkLst accounts](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1790900003-working-in-several-wrklst-accounts).

## Preferences

Under **Inventory display** you choose the **Default view** when opening an inventory (grid, card list or table) and the **Default inventory order**, and whether **Group editions** and **Hide group members** are on by default; both can still be toggled in the filter. **Alternate filter layout** applies to WrkLst Classic only. Under **Navigation** you can have links to other modules always open in a new tab, which is not recommended: ⌘-click does the same when you need it.

## Notifications

Under **Channels**, **Email notifications** sends you notifications by email in addition to those inside WrkLst, and **Product updates** subscribes you to WrkLst feature updates. Under **Notify me about** you turn on the categories you care about and choose when to be told: works marked **Action Required** (a week before due or when due), **Holds** (three days before expiration or on expiration), a **Sale payment past due** (on past due or a week after), a **Sale paid in full**, and **Consignments** (a week before the end or on the end). Each category can be limited to your own records.

## Email Account

Connect a mail account to send emails and save drafts from WrkLst. The channels are **Google Workspace**, **Microsoft 365**, **Infomaniak kSuite** (with an application password) and **IMAP / SMTP**; one channel is active at a time. When a Google or Microsoft connection stops working, WrkLst tells you straight away and offers a **Reconnect** button, and connections survive short outages at the provider. See [Email and accounting connections](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1790900015-email-and-accounting-connections-google-microsoft-quickbooks-stripe-shopify).

*Email Account.*

## Email Settings

**Email defaults** are applied to new emails and drafts: whether your **Signature** is included, **Open tracking**, the **Price in caption**, and how **Artworks in emails** travel (picture with the caption underneath, picture with the caption in it, or one PDF with the artworks). Below that you write your **Signature**, in the text editor or as HTML code, and keep **Email templates**, reusable subject and body snippets with placeholders for the recipient's first and last name.

## Connected apps

This tab lists what is connected to your login. **Connected apps** shows the AI assistants and other applications you signed in with your WrkLst login, each with the account it works in and its last sign-in; **Disconnect** takes the connection back. **Address book** holds one app password per device that syncs your WrkLst contacts to your phone or computer. **Calendar** holds your calendar subscriptions. See [AI assistants](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1790900014-ai-assistants-work-with-wrklst-from-claude-chatgpt-or-cursor), [Sync your WrkLst contacts to your phone and computer](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1790900010-sync-your-wrklst-contacts-to-your-phone-and-computer) and [Calendar feed](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1790900007-calendar-feed-your-wrklst-dates-in-your-calendar).

## Language and appearance

Your language and light or dark mode are not in My Profile but in the menu under your name; see [Appearance, menu and layout](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1786371832-dark-mode-and-the-sidebar).
