Your profile belongs to you, not to a workspace: your name and picture show in every workspace that you belong to, whatever your role in it.

Before you start

  • For a new picture, an image file on your computer.

Update your profile

Profile
  1. Open your profile. At the bottom of the sidebar, choose your name, then Profile. The User Profile page opens on Profile.
  2. Change your picture. Point at the round picture, click the upload arrow that appears, and choose an image. Sway saves it at once and shows it a few moments later.
  3. Correct your name. Edit First Name and Last Name. Other users see them in all your workspaces.
  4. Add your date of birth. Date of Birth is optional.
  5. Save. Choose Update profile. Sway confirms with Change successful.

The menu on the left leads to the other personal pages: Appearance, Notifications and Developer. Back to workspaces, above the title, takes you back to your workspaces.

Choose the theme

Appearance
  1. Open the appearance. In the menu of the profile, choose Appearance.
  2. Pick a theme. Under Theme, choose Light, Dark or Auto, which follows the light or dark setting of your device.
  3. Apply it. Choose Update preferences.

The web app keeps the theme in this browser: on another browser or computer, choose it again.

Your sign-in

The web app has no page to change how you sign in:

  • You chose your second factor when you created your account: see Secure your sign-in.
  • To change your password, choose Forgot password? on the sign-in page: see Sign in.

Delete your account

Under Danger zone, Request deletion opens the account deletion request form of swayapp.io in a new tab. Sway does not delete the account on the spot: its team contacts you to validate the request first.
