Profile
Open Settings → Profile. The top card shows your avatar, name and email, with Reset password. Click it to be emailed a link: you see Reset link sent (“Check email for a link to set a new password.”) or Couldn’t send the reset link. The button is hidden while Popcorn staff are viewing your account.
Click Save changes in the Unsaved changes bar, or Discard. You see Profile saved, or Couldn’t save your profile.
A business name you type is kept: later store syncs and onboarding re-runs do not overwrite it. Home counts days in your browser’s time zone instead; see Home dashboard.
Privacy and analytics
Manage privacy choices reopens the consent dialog for optional analytics and advertising tracking, so you can change what you accepted at sign-up. Read the privacy policy opens the policy on trypopcorn.ai, in Arabic when the app is in Arabic.Leave a workspace
The last panel, Leave workspace, appears only when you belong to another workspace you can work in; a suspended one doesn’t count.1
Open the panel
On Settings → Profile, find the row titled “Leave” and your workspace’s name: “You’ll lose access to its inbox, customers and settings. Your other workspaces aren’t affected.”

Confirm
Click Leave workspace, then Leave on “Leave name?” (“You’ll need a new invitation to come back.”).
Notifications
Open Settings → Notifications. Each row is an inbox event with a switch. When it is on, Channels shows three checkboxes: In-app, Browser and Sound.
Click Save changes. You see Notification settings saved, or Couldn’t save notification settings. If the page can’t load you see Couldn’t load notification settings with Try again.
What an alert looks like
- Pop-up. A message in the corner of the app with the customer’s name and a preview, and View, which opens the conversation. If several arrive at once, the extras are gathered into “New activity in N more conversations”.
- Browser alert. A desktop notification from your browser, shown only while Popcorn is in the background or another window has focus, and only after you allow it. It closes itself after about ten seconds, and clicking it opens the conversation.
- Sound. Plays only while Popcorn is in the background, and only for events whose Sound box is ticked.
Defaults
Defaults follow your role in the workspace you are looking at:
In-app and Browser are ticked for every event. A role change takes effect straight away for any event you have not changed. Once you save a different setting for an event, that choice stays the same in every workspace you belong to.
What these settings don’t cover
- Email and Slack alerts for handovers are set per agent; see Connect knowledge, tools and channels.
- Alerts on your phone come from the app’s own switch; see Mobile app.
- Assignment notifications on Settings → General is a workspace option and does not change your alerts.
Communication
Open Settings → Communication to choose how Popcorn tells you about new features. These messages are separate from inbox notifications, and you can opt out at any time.
With a number on file, WhatsApp updates reads “Major feature news, sent to” and the number. Without one the switch stays off and a banner reads “Add a phone number to get WhatsApp updates.” with Add phone number, which sends you back here afterwards. You can always turn it off. Consent belongs to the number you opted in with: if your account’s number changes, the switch goes off until you opt in again.
Click Save changes. You see Communication preferences saved, Couldn’t save preferences, or Couldn’t load your communication preferences with Try again.
Language
Popcorn is available in English, Arabic and Spanish. Open the workspace menu at the top of the sidebar, find Language, and choose English, العربية or Español; the same menu holds Sign out. Arabic switches the whole app to right-to-left. The choice is stored in your browser and is yours alone; it does not change the language the AI agent uses with customers.Troubleshooting
