User Preferences Redesigned for Speed and Clarity

User Preferences

What's new:

User Preferences now has a faster, more modern design. Access it as usual from Menu > User Preferences (or, if you’re an early access customer using the New UI, select your avatar > Preferences).

• Cleaner layout: Settings are organized into clear sections with simple Yes/No toggles.

• Smarter save workflow: The Save button activates only after you make changes, and a confirmation message appears when saved. Use Cancel to undo unsaved changes, or close the page without saving to discard them.

• Streamlined Pulse trigger words: Type a word and press Enter to add it, or click the X to remove it.

What works the same:

These settings remain unchanged:

• Time zone, daylight saving time, and radius search units (miles or kilometers)

• Start-up screens (if your company uses them)

• Calendar and task defaults: default reminder, privacy settings for appointments and tasks, appointment reminders, and invitation handling

• Default message signature with rich text formatting

• Email forwarding notifications (if your user type allows it)

• Pulse trigger words and Auto-Add settings

• Password access rules, including single sign-on

Known limitations:

• Password: Use Send password reset email to change your password. You’ll be signed out once your new password is set.

• Not yet available on this page:

  • Date and time format

  • External forwarding address

  • Additional signatures

  • Default email font, size, and color

  • Out-of-office auto-reply

  • Email filters

  • Mobile and tablet default views
