# User Settings ## User Settings Learn how to manage your personal preferences in Maica Forms, including how the app looks and what happens to items you delete. *** ### Accessing User Settings Click your **avatar** (initials) in the top-right corner of any page. The menu gives you access to: * **Appearance** — Change the app's colour theme and light or dark mode * **Recycle Bin** — Restore deleted forms, templates, and documents * **Sign out** — End your session *** ### What You'll Find Here #### Appearance Settings Choose how the Maica Forms interface looks to you. Set a colour theme, switch between light and dark mode, or follow your system preference automatically. These settings apply to the app only — they don't affect the forms your respondents see. {% hint style="info" %} See [Appearance Settings](/maica-knowledge-base/forms/user-settings/appearance-settings.md) for full details. {% endhint %} #### Recycle Bin Forms, templates, and documents you've deleted are held in the Recycle Bin for 30 days before being permanently removed. Restore items if you need them back, or clear them out permanently if you don't. {% hint style="info" %} See [Recycle Bin](/maica-knowledge-base/forms/user-settings/recycle-bin.md) for full details. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
