Every preference on this page is personal: it follows your account, not your organization. Two people in the same workspace can work in different languages, themes, and time formats without affecting each other.
Open them from Settings > Appearance and Settings > Preferences.
Appearance
Theme
Pick Light, Dark, or System from the theme cards. The change applies the moment you click — no save needed — and persists across sessions and devices you sign in from with the same browser. System follows your operating system’s light/dark setting automatically.
Compact mode
Turns on a denser default for the assessments board: smaller cards with tighter spacing, so more work fits on screen. Click Save appearance to apply.
The board’s own View menu still has a per-session Compact Mode switch — use it to temporarily override your default without changing the setting.
Preferences
Language
Choose from English, Français, Español, or Deutsch. The interface switches immediately, and the choice is saved to your account — so emails and notifications Kliper sends you arrive in the same language.
Timezone
Shown for reference and detected from your device — it is the same timezone the clock in the top bar uses. There is nothing to configure: work from a different timezone and both update automatically.
Use 24-hour time format
Switches every time display to 24-hour format (14:00 instead of 2:00 PM): the top-bar clock and all calendar views — event times, agenda cards, hour axes, and event details.
Start week on Monday
Controls the first day of the week across the calendar: the month grid, week view, year view, and the mini calendar all start on Monday when enabled, Sunday when disabled. Click Save preferences to apply.
Notifications
Two layers, both personal. Delivery channels decide how you hear from Kliper; activity notifications decide what you hear about. Turning a channel off silences it everywhere; turning off a category silences that category on every channel.
