Application Settings

The «Settings» section is your control center, where you can tailor SingularityApp to your needs — from appearance and language to the behavior of key features.

Application version

You can find the app version number in the following ways:

Desktop app for Windows and web version: Main Menu → top line of the Help section.
App for macOS: Main Menu → SingularityApp → About SingularityApp — a popup with the version number will appear.

Mobile app: App Settings → About.

Apple Watch app version matches the version of the app installed on the paired device.
Wear OS app version can be found in Google Play: open the Google Play app on your watch → find SingularityApp → open the app description → scroll to Additional Information.

Open Settings

Method 1. Press Ctrl + ,

Method 2. From the System menu, select SingularityApp → Settings.

The Settings window will open. On the left, you’ll see a list of sections divided into three groups:

General: Account and Sync, General Settings, Themes and Appearance, Interface.
Features: AI Assistant, Files, Pomodoro, Calendar Connections, Quick Task Add, Integrations and API, Backup.

Select a section on the left, and its settings will open on the right side of the window.

You can also search Settings: start typing a setting name in the search bar, and matching options will appear in a list.

From the System menu, select Settings. The Settings pop-up will open with seven tabs:

General;

Calendars;
Pomodoro.

General Settings

In the General tab, you can customize how the app works to suit your preferences:

Choose when completed tasks are moved to the archive — once a day, immediately after completion, or only when you move them manually.
Choose which notifications appear on the Dock badge: Inbox, Today, Inbox + Today, or none.
Set the first day of the week — Monday or Sunday.
Set the review interval for all projects — once a week, every two weeks, once a month, every six months, or never.
Choose the app language. Available languages: English, Russian, Ukrainian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Kazakh, Polish, Portuguese, and Turkish.
Enable or disable animations when marking tasks as completed.

You can also enable a hotkey for quickly creating tasks, connect the Telegram Bot, turn on Focus Mode, configure the tray icon behavior, automatically add task start notifications for tasks with a set time, hide task templates in projects, and turn off the table of contents in the editor if you do not need sidebar navigation by note headings.

Account and Sync

In the Account and Sync section, you can create a SingularityApp account and enable sync so you can work with your projects and tasks across multiple devices. The section includes five blocks:

Profile. Shows your avatar and account email. The «Sign Out» button is on the right.
Your Plan. Shows your current plan and its expiration date. On the right, you can choose or change your plan.
Data Sync. Shows the date and time of the last sync. The button on the right starts a manual sync.
Account Dashboard. The link opens your account dashboard on the website, where you can connect the API and MCP, update your profile, and add funds to your SPC balance.
Account Actions. In the expandable list, you can:
- change your password;
- edit your name, avatar, and other profile details;
- clear data on this device;
- delete your account.

On the Sync tab, you can create a Singularity Cloud account and enable sync so you can work with your projects and tasks across multiple devices.

Once you’re signed in, you can also:

Interface

In the Interface tab, you can:

Set up task parameters: what to show when you create or edit a task, and in what order.
Choose which icons appear in the left panel and in the top and bottom toolbars (Pro and Elite plans). Clear an icon's checkbox for the panel where you don't want it, and select it for the panel where you do.
Adjust how tasks are displayed in the right panel of the app.
Choose what to do with overdue tasks.

Task Parameters

At the bottom of an open task, the app shows a row of parameters: priority, project, date, reminder, and others. You can choose which of them are always visible and in what order.

Open Settings → Interface → Task parameters. It's the first item on the tab.

The list has 16 parameters: priority, pin, project, kanban column, date, reminder, repeat, deadline, responsible, checklist, subtasks, tags, files, comments, Pomodoro, and password.
The switches in the Task and Note columns set visibility separately for tasks and notes. A parameter that is on is always visible when you create or edit a task or note. A parameter that is off appears only once it's filled in.
Some parameters appear only where they apply: kanban column in projects with a kanban board, responsible in shared projects, and reminder in tasks that have a time set.
To change the order, drag a row by the handle on the left. With the keyboard, move focus to the handle and press Alt + ↑ / ↓ (on macOS, ⌥ + ↑ / ↓).
Above the list, a preview shows an empty task or note. The Task and Note tabs switch between them. The preview updates right away as you drag rows and turn switches on or off.
Presets:
- Minimal always shows priority, project, and date for tasks, and priority and project for notes.
- Standard is the default. For tasks, it shows checklist, subtasks, project, priority, date, reminder, repeat, deadline, and comments. For notes, it shows project, tags, and comments.
- All shows every parameter.
Reset all restores the default order and visibility.

Presets change only visibility and keep your order. The order is shared by tasks and notes, and the setting syncs between your computers and the web version.

You can also adjust parameters right in a task:

Right-click a parameter at the bottom of the task. The menu has Always show, Only when filled in, and Customize parameters…, which opens this setting.
In the + menu (Other parameters), you can drag rows by the same handle. The pin icon on the right of a row turns on Always show. Customize parameters… is at the bottom of this menu too.

Theme

In the Themes tab, you can customize the app’s appearance: choose one of five themes and one of eight accent colors.

Calendars

In the Calendars tab, you can connect Google, Yandex, Outlook, and other web calendars in view-only mode. You can also set up two-way synchronization with Google Calendar.

Pomodoro

In the Pomodoro tab, you can customize the countdown timer — set intervals and adjust its position relative to other windows.

Files

In the Files tab, you can set general preferences for handling files attached to tasks and view the amount of used and available storage space on the server.

Focus on Work Area

Focus on work area keeps the part of the app you're working in bright and dims everything else.

To turn it on, open the General settings tab and turn on Focus on work area. You'll find the same switch on the Themes and appearance tab.

While focus is on, rows get dimmer the farther they are from the selected one. The selected row is bright, the rows directly above and below it are at 80%, the next ones are at 60%, and the rest of the list is at 40%. The side panel dims in the same steps. The row under the cursor is also shown at full brightness. When a task is open in the list or in a popup window, the whole list is dimmed to 40%.

Spell checking

SingularityApp highlights spelling errors in text fields, including task names, notes, project descriptions, and other input fields. Spell checking is not available in password or email address fields. The check is performed by your operating system in the desktop app or by your browser in the web version.

To correct an error, right-click the underlined word. Suggested replacements will appear in the context menu. The suggestions are provided by your operating system or browser, so their availability and content depend on your system or browser settings and the installed language dictionaries.

To disable spell checking, turn off Check Spelling While Typing:

macOS: Right-click inside a text field → Spelling and Grammar → turn off Check Spelling While Typing.
Windows / Linux: Turn off Check Spelling While Typing in the app’s Edit menu or in the text field context menu. This setting is preserved after you restart the app.
Web version: Spell checking can be managed in your browser settings.

Spell checking is enabled by default and is available on all plans.
