How to Manage Your ClickUp Account Settings

ClickUp lets you control personal preferences, security, and notification options from one place so you can tailor the workspace to how you work best. This guide explains where to find each account setting and how to update it step by step.

Use this article as a practical checklist to keep your profile accurate, your login secure, and your app experience organized.

Open Your ClickUp Account Settings

You can access account-level settings from anywhere in the platform. Follow these steps to open the main account menu:

1. Log in to your workspace.
2. Locate your avatar or initials in the lower-left or upper corner of the interface.
3. Click your avatar to open the user menu.
4. Select Settings or a similarly labeled option to open the account settings page.

Once opened, settings are grouped into clear sections so you can quickly navigate to the area you want to configure.

Update Your ClickUp Profile Information

Your profile settings control how you appear to other people in the workspace. To edit your profile:

1. Open the account settings page.
2. Go to the Profile section.
3. Update your personal details, such as:
   • Full name
   • Display name
   • Job title or role
   • Time zone and language preferences
4. Add or change your profile image by uploading a picture or selecting an avatar.
5. Click Save or a similar action button to apply your changes.

Keeping profile details accurate helps teammates identify you quickly and understand who owns tasks, comments, and documents.

Manage Email and Login Settings in ClickUp

Account settings also include key contact and login details. To manage them:

1. From account settings, open the Email or Account section.
2. Review your primary email address used for login and notifications.
3. If allowed, update your email address following any verification prompts.
4. Set or reset your password from the password or security subsection.

Use a strong, unique password and keep your email up to date so you can always recover access and receive critical alerts.

Configure ClickUp Notification Preferences

Notification settings determine how and when you receive updates about tasks, comments, and mentions. To adjust your preferences:

1. Open the Notifications section in your account settings.
2. Review available notification channels, which may include:
   • In-app notifications
   • Email updates
   • Mobile push alerts
3. Enable or disable notification types according to your needs, such as:
   • Assigned tasks
   • Comments and mentions
   • Status changes or due date updates
4. Save your changes.

Fine-tuning notifications helps you stay informed about important work without being overwhelmed by unnecessary alerts.

Adjust ClickUp Appearance and Layout Options

You can personalize how the interface looks and behaves using appearance settings. To adjust the visual experience:

1. In account settings, open the Appearance or Theme section if available.
2. Choose between supported themes, such as light or dark mode.
3. Review options for font size, density, or layout if they are offered.
4. Apply changes and preview how the workspace looks.

These settings help you reduce eye strain and optimize your workspace view for your preferred working style.

Control ClickUp Security and Privacy Settings

Security and privacy options keep your account protected and help you manage how your information is used. To review them:

1. Navigate to the Security or Privacy section in account settings.
2. Check whether options such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) or two-factor authentication (2FA) are available.
3. Follow on-screen instructions to enable additional login protection if offered.
4. Review any sessions or connected devices and sign out of ones you do not recognize.

Stronger security settings lower the risk of unauthorized access to your workspace and data.

Manage Connected Apps and Integrations in ClickUp

When available, you can review and manage third-party connections from your account settings. To handle integrations on a personal level:

1. Open the Integrations or Connected Apps section.
2. Review a list of connected tools, such as chat, calendars, or file storage apps.
3. Disconnect any integration you no longer use or recognize.
4. Reconnect or authorize apps following prompts if you want to restore access.

Keeping integrations tidy helps ensure that external tools only access data you are comfortable sharing.

Update ClickUp Language, Region, and Time Settings

Language and regional options affect how dates, times, and interface labels appear. To adjust them:

1. Go to the Language & Region or similar section.
2. Select your preferred language from the available list.
3. Choose your time zone so due dates and schedules display correctly.
4. Review any additional region settings that may impact formatting and defaults.
5. Save your changes.

Ensuring the right time zone and language helps prevent confusion with deadlines and communication.

Review ClickUp Notifications on Different Devices

If you use both desktop and mobile apps, confirm that notification behavior matches your expectations across devices:

• Open account settings on desktop and check notification rules.
• Open settings in the mobile app and compare available options.
• Decide which alerts you want on each device to avoid duplicates.

This quick review keeps important messages accessible while reducing clutter on your phone or computer.
