In your Any.do account's Profile, you can easily set your accountβs avatar, edit your name and email, and change your password as needed. By managing these elements, you can ensure your profile reflects your identity and stays secure. Whether you need to update your email address or personalize your avatar, these steps will guide you through maintaining and modifying your account information.
π How to add/edit an account avatar
Each Any.do account can be personalized with an avatar (image) that will be reflected in the account's Profile page. This avatar will also be used in Teams (Workspace) and Family boards, indicating the assigned member. We highly recommend adding an avatar when sharing items as it significantly helps in quickly identifying assigned tasks π€

βοΈ To modify your account's email address
Each Any.do account can be associated with a single email address. This email will be used whenever you log in and also for different functions like emailing personal tasks to your account. It will also be used for verifying the account in different circumstances and for log-in purposes (2FA) so we always recommend setting it to an email that is fully accessible from your end.
In case you ever need to change the email address associated with your account, you can quickly do so from any mobile device:
Tap the Home button on the left lower corner of your screen.
Open any list\board\calendar view.
Tap the 3 dots menu on the top right corner and choose 'Settings'.
Tap 'Profile' under Account.
Update your email by tapping the pencil icon to the right.
Tap 'Done' on your keyboard and enter your password to verify (if you registered via Google/Facebook/Apple you will need to create a password for this process).
Note: At this time, there is no option to change your email on Web or desktop.
βοΈ To change the name/initials associated with your account
As you set up your Any.do account, you can add your full name as part of your profile. This name will also be used to create the initials that will show on shared items (in case you did not add an avatar). If you wish to change this name you can easily do so as follows:
