Get KeyUp

Basic and Advanced settings

Every settings screen shows the everyday rows first. The rest are in one Advanced fold on the same screen. Room and Space settings on iPhone follow the same layout. Nothing was removed.

Each settings category shows the rows most people use first, then one Advanced fold with the rest: tuning, rare cases and the second place of a setting. Nothing was removed, a row can only move. Tap Advanced to open the fold and Hide advanced to close it. KeyUp remembers whether you left it open, for each screen on each device. When something inside is not at its usual value, the fold’s second line says so, like “Changed: Mic boost”, so nothing hides silently. A category whose rows are all everyday, like Appearance, has no fold.

Each row below is a category on the You tab. Everyday rows show without a tap. Advanced rows are in the fold.

Each setting lives in one place

Where a setting used to appear twice, one copy was kept. Pause music is in Sound, and Sounds and vibration points there. Sounds is in You › Sound › Sounds and vibration only. Quiet, Mute, Hours and Rooms and mutes are in one row, You › Quiet and notifications › Quiet, Mute and Hours (the same sheet as the moon). Keep KeyUp running is in Devices, shown only while Android is restricting KeyUp, and a tip offers it. Send crash reports and Send read receipts are in Privacy and AI › Advanced. Show translations of talks is in Privacy and AI. Sound check is in Sound only. Restore purchases is in the Plans sheet (Account and plan › My plan). Second room volume is on the second-room bar. The crown, Raise, screen and buzz details are on the watch only (Settings › How you talk); the phone’s Talk › On my watch has the picker and More on your watch. In Room settings, Keep a copy of talks holds the Replay and transcript choices and both keep times, and Connected at once and Messages to keep are gone: the room follows your plan. Links in KeyUp and in this Help open the place that was kept.
