Account and privacy settings
These settings control your personal Gym Art account: your profile details, sign-in security, app preferences, and your privacy choices. You reach them from the account menu, which is separate from any individual meet. Club-level settings such as the profile image live in Club profile settings.
Profile
Display name
What it does. The name shown for your account.
What it affects. Appears as your name in the account panel and on records tied to your account. Saving updates it on your sign-in identity.
When to use it. Set it to your real name so co-organizers and support can recognize you. Press Save to apply changes.
Default. Taken from your account when you first signed up.
Email
What it does. The email address tied to your account and used to sign in.
What it affects. Changing it starts a verification flow: Gym Art sends a confirmation link to the new address, and the change takes effect only after you click it.
When to use it. Change it when your contact address changes. Make sure you can receive mail at the new address before you save, since the change is not complete until you verify it.
Default. The address you signed up with.
Security
Reset password
What it does. Sends a password reset link to your email.
What it affects. Lets you set a new password from the link. It does not change your password immediately; you complete the reset from the email.
When to use it. Use it when you have forgotten your password or want to rotate it. Check your inbox after requesting the link.
Default. Not applicable (an action, not a stored setting).
Two-factor authentication
What it does. Adds a second step to sign-in using a code sent to your phone.
What it affects. Once enrolled, signing in requires both your password and a code sent by text message to an enrolled number. You can enroll more than one phone and remove them later.
When to use it. Recommended for organizer accounts, since they control meets, rosters, and payouts. Set it up from the Security section and keep at least one enrolled phone you can always reach.
Default. Off (no second factor).
Preferences
Language
What it does. Sets the language of the app interface.
What it affects. Switches all menus and labels to the selected language and remembers the choice on your account and this device.
