Your settings

Settings is where you tune your account and how Frequency reaches you.

What you'll find there

• Profile: your display name, handle, photo, header image (the banner across the top of your profile), bio, and region. This is what other members see.
• Connections & Location: control how you're found by people nearby (see below).
• Notifications: choose what you're told about and how (in-app, email, push), pick how often, and mute a single Circle or Space. See Notifications and "Choosing what reaches you" below.
• Account: sign-in and account-level controls.
• Billing: for membership. During the beta this is a placeholder; everything is free (see Membership & the Vault).

Connections & Location

Frequency helps you find people nearby, and you're always in control of how visible you are. We never share your exact location. Others only ever see a fuzzed area or your city, never a pin on a map.

• Ghost mode: one tap to vanish from proximity and maps entirely.
• Show me in the Community directory: whether you're listed at all.
• Who can find me nearby: no one, only your connections, or the whole community.
• Location precision: the most anyone can see, whether hidden, your city, or a fuzzed neighborhood area (about a mile across).
• Discoverability radius: how far away someone can be and still find you. Your own slider, from a mile up to your whole region.
• Live location (optional, off by default): share your current spot instead of your home city, handy when traveling. It's a one-time snapshot, not a tracker, and your precision setting still applies. Full details in Your location & being found nearby.

Choosing what reaches you

Under Settings → Notifications you decide exactly what Frequency sends and how often. Nothing here is all-or-nothing.

• Topics: turn each kind on or off on its own, and per place (in-app, email, push). Topics include Dispatches, events, mentions, replies and comments on your own posts, and the occasional marketing note about Frequency.
• How often: for each topic, pick real-time, a daily digest, or a weekly digest. Choose real-time for the things you want right away, and a digest for the rest, so a busy day arrives as one summary instead of a stream.
• Mute one Circle or Space: quiet a single Circle or Space without leaving it. You stay a member and see everything when you open the app; you just stop getting pinged about that one.
• Marketing and memory: separate switches control marketing email and whether Vera remembers your details between chats. Both are yours to turn off any time.

Account and security messages, like a password reset or a sign-in alert, always send. They're not marketing, so they aren't part of these choices.

Not a member of Frequency but still getting email from a business here? Every email has a link to a small preferences page where you can turn down one topic or stop the emails entirely, without needing an account.

Good to know

• Your handle is how people @-mention and find you, so pick something you're happy to be known by.
• Keeping your region current helps surface Circles and events near you.
• Notification preferences are always yours to change, and we honor them everywhere.
• Your connection and location settings are always yours to change, and we honor them everywhere. Turn on Ghost mode any time you want to be invisible.
