# Daylite Settings

Daylite Settings is where you configure both your own experience and the shared setup of your Daylite database. Open it from **Daylite > Settings**. 

{% hint style="info" icon="circle-info" %}
**Note: Not all settings are managed within Daylite** 

* [Account Manager](https://docs.daylite.app/help/center/account-settings/account-manager) is Daylite's web portal. It's where you manage your subscription and plan, invite users and review authorized devices, and set up third-party calendar and contact sharing. All users can sign in, but only the account administrator sees every option.
* [Settings on iPhone and iPad](https://app.gitbook.com/o/yuKjoAhjElYCuCWbN2ul/sites/site_gTkfs/s/6oVSyjL3UowOqokog3Vn/~/edit/~/changes/358/daylite-settings-for-iphone-and-ipad) are laid out a little differently and cover a smaller set of options.
  {% endhint %}

The panes are organized into four groups:

[**Personal**](https://app.gitbook.com/o/yuKjoAhjElYCuCWbN2ul/sites/site_gTkfs/s/6oVSyjL3UowOqokog3Vn/~/edit/~/changes/355/daylite-settings/personal) **-** Per-user preferences that affect only your own login. Two people using the same database can set these differently without affecting each other.

[**Primary**](https://app.gitbook.com/o/yuKjoAhjElYCuCWbN2ul/sites/site_gTkfs/s/6oVSyjL3UowOqokog3Vn/~/edit/~/changes/355/daylite-settings/primary) **-** The core shared building blocks of your database — the record types and classifications everyone works with.

[**Secondary**](https://app.gitbook.com/o/yuKjoAhjElYCuCWbN2ul/sites/site_gTkfs/s/6oVSyjL3UowOqokog3Vn/~/edit/~/changes/355/daylite-settings/secondary) **-** Further shared customization — the details that tailor how records look, what they default to, and the reference lists Daylite draws on

[**System**](https://app.gitbook.com/o/yuKjoAhjElYCuCWbN2ul/sites/site_gTkfs/s/6oVSyjL3UowOqokog3Vn/~/edit/~/changes/355/daylite-settings/system) - Account-level and administrative settings that govern users, access, and how your organization is represented. These are managed by administrators.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.daylite.app/help/mac-fundamentals/daylite-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
