Customize My Dashboard
My Dashboard can look however you like: your own greeting, colors, photos and stickers. You can also hide the Home cards you don't use. Only you see any of it.
Open the settings
On My Dashboard, tap Customize under your greeting. A panel called Make it yours slides in. Changes save as you make them, and you'll see Saved at the top. Tap Done when you're finished.
You can also get here from User Settings → Preferences → Customize My Dashboard.
Name & font
- What should we call you? The name in your greeting. Leave it blank to use your profile name.
- Greeting: the words before your name.
- Font and Name color for the greeting.
Colors
- Quick themes: one tap sets a matching look.
- Background: a solid color or a gradient.
- Accent: the color for tabs, buttons and badges.
- Border: a decorative edge around the page, with a Size.
houndkit adjusts text colors automatically so everything stays readable on dark backgrounds.
Photos
Add up to six photos to the top of the page, such as your pets or your team. Photos can be JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 5MB each. Give each one a caption if you like, and use the arrows to reorder them. Frame style and Frame color change how they're shown.
Home cards
Switch off any Home card you don't want, like Mentions, My Links or Your Kudos. Turning a card off only hides it from your dashboard. Nothing is deleted.
Decorate with stickers
- Tap Decorate under your greeting.
- A tray opens at the bottom with three kinds of decoration: Stickers, Magnet letters and Pictures.
- Tap one to add it, then drag it anywhere on the page.
- Select a decoration to make it bigger or smaller, tilt it, or Remove it.
- For magnet letters, type a word (like "GO TEAM!") and pick a color or rainbow.
- Under Pictures, tap Upload pictures to add your own images.
- Tap Done when you're finished. Once you're done, your decorations sit behind your cards so they never get in the way. Press Escape to stop decorating at any time.
Tip
There's a limit to how many decorations fit. If you hit it, remove one to add another.
