Settings

Access Settings by tapping the gear icon in the Home screen header.

Account

  • Your display name, which you can edit.
  • Log Out.
  • Danger Zone: Delete Account permanently deletes your account and all its data. The app asks for your password to confirm.

Household

Manage your household membership:

  • Switch households --- Tap a household to make it active
  • Edit household --- Admins and power users tap the pencil icon to rename, manage members, or configure household features
  • Join Another Household --- Enter an Invite Code from that household's admin; the app shows which household you will join. Tap Join.
  • Create New Household --- Enter a Household name and tap Create
  • Leave household --- In Edit household, when you belong to more than one household

Member Management (Admin)

Admins can manage household members:

  • Change member roles (Member, Power User, Admin)
  • Remove members from the household
  • Create and revoke invite codes

Web Search (Admin)

Household admins can control whether Jarvis is permitted to search the internet when answering questions. Open Edit household (pencil icon) to find the Web Search card.

Setting Description
Use web search When enabled, Jarvis can fetch current events, prices, and recent news to supplement its answers. When off, Jarvis answers only from what it already knows — nothing leaves your network for search purposes. Default: off.

Note

Only household admins can toggle this setting. Members see the current state but cannot change it.

Voice

  • Voice Profile: enroll your voice so Jarvis recognizes you.
  • Command Feedback: rate recent voice commands, which helps Jarvis learn your patterns.
  • Memories: what Jarvis remembers about you; review, edit or forget it.
  • Phonebook: businesses Jarvis can call, with numbers, notes and do-not-call.
  • Call details: your details Jarvis can use on a call (name, callback number, insurance). Private ones are held back unless asked for.

Appearance

Toggle between Light, Dark, and System themes.

Chat

  • Auto-play responses --- Automatically speak Jarvis responses aloud

Security

Biometric Login

Toggle biometric session restore under Settings → Security. The card appears only on devices with biometrics.

Setting Description
Biometric login When on, a cold-boot launch requires Face ID, Touch ID, or Android biometrics before restoring your session. When off, the password form is shown directly.

Toggling re-keys the stored refresh token immediately — you do not need to log out and back in for the change to take effect.

Scope: only cold-boot session restore is gated. Background token refresh, device-control calls, and K2 node-encryption keys are never gated by biometrics and never prompt mid-session.

Platform: iOS uses Face ID or Touch ID via the Secure Enclave. Android biometric support requires an app build that includes the USE_BIOMETRIC permission; the enroll checkbox will not appear on older APKs.

Privacy

  • Push notifications --- When on, alerts are delivered through Expo's push service. Turn it off for a fully local experience; the app then can't receive alerts from outside your Wi-Fi.

Connection

Shows whether the app is connected to a Local server (Jarvis running on your network) or Cloud, and the addresses it found from your server URL. Re-check Connection reconnects to your server URL and reloads those addresses; use it after changing Wi-Fi.

Smart Home

  • Primary Node --- the node that handles device discovery for your household. A computer running the desktop agent can't find smart-home devices and runs routines only while it is on.
  • Use External Devices --- show devices from your device manager (read-only): live state from Home Assistant or another hub instead of Jarvis's local copy.

To connect Home Assistant, use Set Up Smart Home on the Success! screen at the end of adding a node; it opens Smart Home Setup with Connect Home Assistant.

Config Service URL

The address of your Jarvis server, for example http://192.168.1.100:7700. It is required: the app doesn't search the network for it. Enter it and tap Save & Connect; Clear server URL removes it. Saving a new address logs you out and clears local data, so be ready to sign in again.
