Account settings

How to change your name and password in Aigio, choose your analytics cookie setting, and log out of your account.

Account settings is where you change your own details: the name other people see, your password, and your privacy choices. Your account is the same in every workspace, so a change here shows in all of them.

You reach it from your name at the bottom of the left sidebar. The same menu has Log out, which signs you out of Aigio.

At a glance

  • Open Account settings: Your name at the bottom of the left sidebar > Account
  • Change your name: Profile > Type the new name > Save changes

Open Account settings

  1. Click your name at the bottom of the left sidebar. A menu opens with your name and email, Account and Log out.
  2. Click Account. The Account settings box opens on the Profile tab.

The tabs are on the left: Profile, Password and Privacy. Click a tab to switch.

On pages without a sidebar, such as Your workspaces, click Account settings under the list instead.

To close the box, click the X at the top right or press Esc.

Change your name

Your name is shown to the members of your workspaces.

  1. Open Account settings. The Profile tab is open.
  2. Click the Name box and type your new name. It can be up to 64 characters.
  3. Click Save changes. The button is greyed out until you change the name.
  4. The message Profile updated. appears at the bottom right of the screen. Your new name shows in the sidebar straight away.

You can't change your email address here.

Change your password

  1. Open Account settings and click Password.
  2. In Current password, type the password you use now.
  3. In New password, type your new password. It must be 8 to 64 characters.
  4. In Confirm new password, type the new password again.
  5. Click Change password.

To check what you typed, click the eye icon at the right of a box.

Choose your privacy settings

When you first use Aigio in a browser, a We use cookies box asks about analytics cookies. Click I understand to allow them, or No thanks to refuse.

To change your choice at any time:

  1. Open Account settings and click Privacy.
  2. Turn Analytics cookies on or off.

When it is on, Aigio can link your usage to your account and record sessions to improve the product. When it is off, Aigio only counts visits anonymously, without cookies. The Privacy policy link has the details.

Log out

  1. Click your name at the bottom of the left sidebar.
  2. Click Log out.

On pages without a sidebar, click Log out under the list instead.

Aigio signs you out straight away and opens the Log in page. It does not ask you to confirm. If you then open a link to a workspace page, the Log in page opens instead.

Tips

  • Use a password you don't use for any other website.
  • If you forgot your current password, you can't change it here. Log out and use Forgot password? on the Log in page. See Reset a forgotten password.
  • Use a name your team will recognise. It's what members see in your workspaces.
