Managing Your Account
Overview
Your name, photo, email, password and history settings all live in Settings. This article is where each one is and what saving it takes.
Get started
1. Open Settings
Click your name or avatar at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Settings, or press Ctrl + Shift + S (Cmd + Shift + S on Mac).
2. Change your name
Your name appears in the sidebar and on any chat you share by link. Go to Settings → Account, click Edit next to Name, type the new name and click Save.
3. Change your photo
Under Profile Photo, click Change photo and pick an image from your device. Torki accepts JPG, PNG or GIF up to 1MB. To take the photo off, click Remove next to the same button and your display reverts to showing your initials.
4. Change your email or password
Both live in Settings → Account. Changing your email takes two codes — one to your old address, one to the new one. See Changing Your Email or Password for the steps.
Good to know
If you signed up with Google, Apple or Microsoft you have no password, and Settings cannot create one for you — the Password section needs a current password you do not have.
To add email-and-password sign-in, sign out, click Forgot password on the login page and enter your account email. Torki emails you a reset link, and the password you set there works alongside your social sign-in.
Chat History
Toggle Chat History on or off from Settings → Data Controls. When it is off, new conversations are kept out of your history list and out of Export Data, so they will not appear in the sidebar and you will not be able to reopen them.
Existing saved conversations are untouched and remain until you archive or delete them.
Saving your changes
Toggles such as Chat History and the notification switches save the moment you flip them. Name, password and email each have their own confirm step — Save, Update Password and Update Email — so your change is not applied until you click it.
FAQ
My new name did not save.
Name has its own Save button. Typing alone does not apply it.
Why is my photo rejected?
It is over 1MB, or it is not a JPG, PNG or GIF.
Where do I delete my account?
Settings → Account, at the bottom. See Deleting Your Account for what happens next.
