App preferences

Theme, interface scale, language, timezone, send key, typing privacy and other everyday knobs.

Preferences (user menu) splits the everyday knobs across two tabs: General for how the app looks and where it thinks you are, Chat for how the composer behaves.

The General tab of Preferences with theme, interface scale, language and timezone controls

Preferences → General. Interface scale is per device; the rest follows your account.

General

  • Theme — light, dark, or follow the system.
  • Interface scale — 100%, 125% or 150%, independently of the browser zoom. Stored on this device, not on your account: your phone and your desktop keep their own value.
  • Language — the interface language; see Language, account & your data.
  • Timezone — timestamps across the app render in the timezone you pick, wherever you log in from.

Chat

  • Send key — Enter, Shift+Enter, Ctrl+Enter, or None; the combination you don’t pick inserts a newline instead, and None disables sending from the keyboard altogether so you send with the button.
  • Convert emoticons to emoji — turns :D into 😄 as you type. Skipped inside code.
  • Emoji skin tone — the default tone used by the picker and autocomplete. Per device.
  • Let others see when I’m typing — opt out of broadcasting “…is typing”; you’ll still see theirs.
  • Pick up where you left off — reopen the channel or conversation you last viewed when you come back. Turn it off to land on the community’s default channel every time.

Microphone, speakers, camera, voice mode, push-to-talk key, levels, noise suppression and background blur share a single Voice & Video tab — see Voice & video; all of it is per device. Your own API keys and account actions sit in the remaining tabs.
