# Settings

Manage personal profile, security, linked accounts, sessions, and display preferences.

Settings contains account-specific options for the current CrossWatch profile.

{% hint style="info" %}
Profile Settings differs from the main CrossWatch administration settings. Available options depend on your role and assigned permissions.
{% endhint %}

**Watcher** and **Playback** are Profile sections, not Profile Settings options. Use [Watcher](/crosswatch/settings/scrobbler/watcher.md) for real-time scrobbling. Use [Playback](/crosswatch/main-dashboard/navigation/profile/playback.md) to review and manage playback progress.

### Profile

Use **Profile** to manage your personal account details. You can:

* Change or remove your profile picture
* Change your display name
* View your username and account role

### Security

Use **Security** to manage how you sign in. You can:

* Change your password
* Enable or disable two-step verification
* Set up an authenticator
* Generate or review backup codes, when supported

### Linked accounts

**Linked accounts** shows external identities linked to your CrossWatch account. Depending on configured authentication, this can include:

* Plex
* Single sign-on through OIDC

Available link and unlink actions depend on your account and server configuration.

### Devices

**Devices** lists your active signed-in sessions. Review sessions and sign out ones that no longer need access.

You can also sign out every other session.

### Display

**Display** is available to administrators and managed users with write permission. Current preferences include:

* **Now Playing** card
* **Quick Add** button

These settings control whether the matching interface elements appear for your profile.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="End users" %}
Use Profile Settings to manage your account, security, linked identities, sessions, and display preferences.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Power users" %}
Profile Settings is available at `/profile#account`.

Account actions use Profile APIs for profile details, avatar, password, two-step verification, and sessions.

Provider, synchronization, and server settings remain in the main administration settings.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://wiki.crosswatch.app/crosswatch/main-dashboard/navigation/profile/settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
