The Account Settings tab allows each team member to personalize their experience, adjust how the system behaves visually and functionally, manage notifications and profile visibility. Accessible via the avatar menu in the top-right corner of the interface, this section is divided into several tabs: Account, General, Notifications, Navigation bar, Media, and About.

Account

The tab provides access to account-related information and options. It displays profile details such as your name and avatar, along with a link to My profile for editing personal information.

You can also manage your password through the password change option, and update your email address - this requires verification using your current password.

General

The tab includes interface appearance settings as well as application startup behavior.

  • Start TeamOK automatically

    Enables the application to launch automatically when logging into the computer.

  • Launch TeamOK in the background

    Starts the app minimized to the notification area (system tray), reducing desktop clutter.

You can also choose how the interface appears:

  • Light – a bright interface with a light background.

  • Dark – a dark color theme ideal for reducing eye strain in low-light environments.

  • System – automatically syncs with your device’s operating system theme.

Notifications

This section provides complete control over how and when notifications are received. Available options include:

  • Use smart notifications

    Prevents repeated alerts about the same event within a defined time frame. You can customize the repetition interval to 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes, ensuring you're notified once per event without constant reminders.

  • Play sound notifications

    Enables audio alerts for messages and events. Use the customize link to adjust sound preferences.

  • Show bubble notifications

    Activates visual pop-up alerts on your desktop for incoming activity. The test link lets you preview how it will appear.

  • Disable Notifications

    The button allows to temporarily mute all notifications. This is not a permanent disable but a configurable pause. You’ll need to manually set the duration when muting notifications.

Alternatively, you can mute notifications through the avatar dropdown menu. Available durations include:

  • 30 minutes

  • 1 hour

  • 2 hours

  • For today

  • Custom duration

Both options serve the same purpose, offering flexible control over when you're notified.

Navigation Bar

The Navigation Bar tab allows you to pin selected teammates to the left-hand panel for faster access. This feature is especially useful for keeping frequently contacted colleagues within immediate reach.

To add someone to your navigation panel:

  1. Click Add employee.

  2. Use the search bar to find a teammate.

  3. Confirm your choice by clicking Select.

Pinned teammates can be easily rearranged using drag and drop. This allows you to organize them in the order that best suits your workflow.

Media

This tab allows you to manage media playback and download behavior in TeamOK.

  • Play video and animated images automatically

    Enable this checkbox to allow media content to play automatically. Leaving it unchecked helps reduce distractions and conserve bandwidth.

  • Choose download path

    Specify where downloaded files will be saved. You can select the system’s default folder or define a custom folder. Use the Open link to quickly access the currently active download location.

About

The About tab provides information about the current version of the TeamOK application.


If a new version is available, a corresponding download link will appear here, allowing you to update the app directly.
