Your account and profile
Managing your personal Psalmly account — your name, photo, and contact details, your email and password, appearance, notifications, blocked members, signing in with Face ID on mobile, signing out, deleting your account, and sending feedback to the Psalmly team.
You have one Psalmly account that carries across every church you belong to. Manage it from Account (the menu under your name on the web) or the Profile tab in the mobile app. Change something here and it updates everywhere — because it's you, not your membership in any one church.
Your profile
- Photo — the picture that represents you across Psalmly.
- Personal info — your name, phone, and a short bio.
- Email — change it with a quick verification step.
- Password — update it anytime.
How much of this other members can see is up to you and set per church in that church's directory — see Your church directory. (Admins can always see your email, since that's how invitations work.)
Appearance
Choose Light, Dark, or System under Appearance. System follows your device's own setting. This is set per device, so your phone and your laptop can differ.
Notifications
Control what reaches you:
- Email — choose which of each church's emails you receive (announcements and the weekly bulletin). It's per church.
- Push notifications (mobile) — turn categories like announcements, groups, and events on or off for your phone.
These are independent, and either way you'll always still see things in the app. For where church news gathers, see Your Updates inbox and Announcements you receive.
Blocked members
Anyone you've blocked is listed under Blocked members, where you can unblock them. For how blocking works, see Blocking and reporting.
Signing in with Face ID or Touch ID (mobile)
In the mobile app you can turn on biometric unlock so you sign in with Face ID or Touch ID instead of typing your password each time. It appears in your Profile when your device supports it.
Signing out and deleting your account
- Sign out is in your account menu (on mobile it also turns off push for that device).
- Deleting your account is scheduled, not instant. Your account is hidden right away and permanently erased 30 days later, and you can restore it from the same screen any time before then. Start it from Account → Delete account on the web, or Profile → Delete account in the mobile app. If you're the only leader of a church, hand it off or close it first — Psalmly will tell you which. Your giving history and contribution statements are kept, anonymized, because they're financial records.
Church websites
Some churches list their team on their public website. Church websites shows you where you appear publicly, and lets you take yourself off.
Sending feedback to Psalmly
Spotted a bug or have an idea? Send feedback — at the bottom of the sidebar on the web (just under Help), or under Support in the Profile tab on mobile — goes straight to the Psalmly team, not your church. We read every note, though we can't always reply. This is different from contacting your church (use its own contact form or ask an admin) and from an admin's support tickets.
