Your Instant account settings control how you appear to teammates, how you sign in, and a few builder preferences.
Open account settings
Choose Your account in the builder menu (Instant logo in the header), or open My account from the account settings sidebar (/profile). The page header reads My account.
Update your photo and name
In the Personal details card:
Upload a profile photo (Min. size 128x128px, PNG or JPEG).
Edit the Name field.
Click Save in the page header.
Your name and photo appear in the builder presence indicators and member lists.
Change your email
If your account already has an email address:
In Personal details, the Email field shows your current address (it's read-only).
Click Change.
Enter your new email in the dialog and submit.
Instant sends a verification link to the new address—open it to confirm.
Your login email changes only after you verify the new address.
Add an email to a Shopify-created account
If you installed Instant through Shopify, your account may not have an email yet. Instant shows a Verify your account banner on My account:
Your account doesn't have an email address yet. Add your email so you can always sign in.
Click Add email.
Enter the email you want to use for Instant.
Open the verification link Instant sends you to confirm.
Without an email, you may lose access if you can't sign in through Shopify.
Interface preferences
In the Interface card:
Cursor — open the dropdown and pick a style: Default, Flag, Lightning, Old School, Paw, Plane, Star, Target, or Wrench. Your cursor is visible to other users working on the same page.
Click Save in the page header to apply interface changes.
Teams on your account
If you belong to any teams, a Teams card lists them with a Leave team option. Leaving removes your access to that team's projects—use it when you no longer work with an agency or client team.
