Account settings

Settings gathers everything about your account: your profile, your credits, how Highwind looks and which language it speaks, your session and account deletion. Anything about a specific project (name, publishing, backend, secrets, connectors) is set in the project settings.

Open the settings

1. At the bottom of the sidebar, click your name (or My account).
2. In the menu, choose Settings.

Settings open with a menu on the left: Profile, Credits, Preferences, Account. One section at a time. The sidebar’s Credits meter opens the Credits section directly.

Profile

“Your identity on Highwind.”

• At the top, your picture (from your Google or GitHub account if you sign in with them, otherwise your initial), your name or email address, and the date “Member since …”.
• Display name: the name shown in the sidebar (“Your first name or nickname”, 60 characters at most). Change it, then click Save; the button shows Saved.

Note

Your email address is the one you sign in with (and where you received your invitation during the beta). It can’t be changed from the settings.

Credits

The details of your credits:

• Today: today’s remaining credits, with a gauge and the time of the next refill (“credits per day, reset every night (no rollover)”);
• This month: what’s left of the monthly cap;
• Bonus credits: added by the Highwind team, never expire;
• Recent activity: your latest requests to the agent (with the project’s name) and the bonus credits you received.

Everything about how they work is in Credits.

Preferences

“How Highwind looks and which language it speaks.”

Theme

Light, Dark or System (follows your device’s light or dark setting). The theme is kept on this device: you can have a different theme on your computer and on your phone.

This setting only affects Highwind’s interface, not your apps: an app’s theme (its colors, its dark mode) is set in its Design mode.

Language

Français or English. The chosen language applies to the interface, sign-in emails and Highwind messages (errors, version summaries, card texts).

What about the agent’s language?

The agent replies in the language you write in, whatever the interface language. Write to it in French, it replies in French. The language of your app’s copy is decided in your request (“the site must be in English”) or in the project’s Instructions for the agent.

You can also switch languages before signing in, with the language picker on the sign-in page and on Highwind’s public site. On your first visit, Highwind picks your browser’s language.

Account

“Your session, and deleting your account if you want to leave.”

• Sign out: “Ends your session on this device.” The same button is in your name’s menu, at the bottom of the sidebar.
• Danger zone → Delete my account: permanently erases your account, your projects and their history, your published apps and their backends. Before doing it, read Delete your account.
