Profile Settings

The Profile page lets you update your name, role, bio, profile photo, and social links. This information appears on the intro slide of every handyout you generate.

Editing your profile

What the Profile page lets you view and edit, including your account email address and its verification status, why profile information matters for handyouts, and where it appears to your audience.

Your profile information appears on the intro slide of every handyout you generate. Keeping it up to date ensures your audience always sees accurate contact details and a recognisable presenter photo.

Email verification

The email address row on the profile page indicates whether your account email has been confirmed. If you signed up recently and have not yet clicked the confirmation link in the welcome email, the page shows that your email is unverified. Verifying your email ensures you continue to receive notifications for new comments and replies. If you need a new verification email, check your inbox for the original message or contact support.
