Profile and Status

Your profile is your business card on the team — and your status helps others see at a glance whether you're available right now.

The Profile Tab

The Profile tab brings together everything personal. At the top you'll see your profile card with avatar, name, role, contact details, and current status. Below that are Time Management, the Companies section, and the Invite a Friend button. In the top right you'll find the sign-out icon and the gear icon for app settings.

Setting a Status

From your profile card you can reach the My Status screen. Here are two things:

  • Status — your current availability, for example "Busy".
  • Invisible Mode — a toggle that temporarily hides you from view.

"Set Status" with free text and suggestions.

When you tap Status, the Set Status screen opens. You can enter free text or choose one of the suggestions: Busy, In a Meeting, On the Move, Out Sick, On Vacation, Working from Home, or In the Office.

Tap Save to apply the status, or Clear to remove it.

Visibility

Profile fields are visible within your companies. With invisible mode, you can selectively hide yourself from view when you want to work undisturbed. With someone from a different company, you only share what you actively write.

Tip: A brief status like "on Müller site until 3 PM" saves your team follow-up questions — often more useful than any availability color.

Web App and Mobile App

Changing your avatar and managing profile fields is quick on desktop.
