Account Settings

Manage your profile, security, and email preferences from the Account Settings page.

Accessing Account Settings​

  1. Click your avatar in the top-right corner of any page.
  2. Select Account from the dropdown menu.

Update Your Name​

  1. Edit the Name field on the Account Settings page.
  2. Click Save.

Your updated name appears immediately across Proseweave.

Change Password​

info

Password changes are only available for email/password accounts. If you signed in with Google or Apple, the password section will not appear — manage your password through your SSO provider.

  1. Enter your Current Password.
  2. Enter your New Password (minimum 8 characters).
  3. Re-enter it in the Confirm New Password field.
  4. Click Change Password.
warning

For security, password change attempts are rate-limited to 5 per minute. If you exceed this limit, wait a moment before trying again.

Forgot Password​

If you've forgotten your password, you can reset it from the login page:

  1. Click Forgot password? below the password field on the login page.
  2. Enter the email address associated with your account.
  3. Click Send Reset Link.
  4. Check your inbox for an email with a reset link (check spam if you don't see it).
  5. Click the link and enter a new password (minimum 8 characters).
  6. Confirm your new password and click Reset Password.

You'll be redirected to the login page where you can sign in with your new password.

info

For security, the forgot password page always confirms the request was sent — even if the email isn't registered. This prevents others from checking whether an email has an account. Reset links expire after 1 hour and can only be used once.

warning

Password reset is only available for email/password accounts. If you signed in with Google or Apple, reset your password through your SSO provider instead.

Newsletter​

New accounts are subscribed to the Proseweave newsletter by default. The newsletter includes writing tips, product updates, and Proseweave news.

To change your subscription:

  1. Find the Newsletter section on the Account Settings page.
  2. Toggle the switch to subscribe or unsubscribe.

Your preference is saved immediately — no confirmation email required.

Account Info​

The bottom of the page displays read-only account details:

  • Provider — how you signed up (email, Google, or Apple)
  • Member since — when your account was created
