Profile & preferences
In this article
Update your name, avatar, and teaching preferences in one place. Your profile settings shape how EMStudio works for you — from display options to notification preferences.
Open settings
Click your profile icon in the top right of the app. For a full tour of the app layout, see Navigate the app →. The settings page shows your profile, preferences, and account details in one place.
At the top you'll see your name, email, sign-in method, and member-since date, along with your totals — classes, students, lessons, and assignments.
Active semester
Your active semester controls what data you see across the entire app. Switching semesters filters your classes, timetable, planner, and everything else. Learn more about managing semesters →
Change your active semester from the dropdown on the settings page or from the semester selector at the top of the sidebar.
Switching semesters doesn't delete anything. Your previous semester's data is always there — just switch back to see it.
