# Personal settings

> Learn how to tailor how Bolt looks, sounds, and displays information while you work.

Personal settings let you easily adjust how Bolt feels while you build. There are six sections to Personal Settings (not to be confused with Project Settings):

* General Personal Settings
* Subscriptions & Tokens
* Applications
* Cloud
* Knowledge
* Connectors (MCP)

## Access your Personal Settings

To access your personal settings, follow these steps:

1. Log in to a Bolt project.
2. Click **your avatar** in the top-right corner of your screen.
3. Click **Settings**.

  This will land you in your General Personal Settings. You can also navigate to other areas of your Personal Settings using the left navigation menu.

## General Personal Settings

Your General Settings give you simple controls to adjust how Bolt feels while you build. You can choose a theme, manage notifications, show or hide token details, and fine-tune how code appears in the editor. These small adjustments help create a workspace that matches your preferences and keeps everything comfortable and easy to follow.

Settings you can modify include the following:

* Switching between light and dark themes using the theme dropdown
* Showing or hiding token usage in chat
* Turning sound notifications on or off when Bolt finishes responding
* Choosing a model to use automatically when you start a new project
  <Tip>
    The `Default model` setting only applies to new projects. If you come back to an existing project, or if you switch to a different model after starting your project, Bolt uses the last model you selected.
  </Tip>
* Enabling or disabling line wrapping for long lines of code in the editor

## Subscriptions & Tokens

You can use this page to review your token and billing details. It shows your current usage, your remaining balance, and the date your tokens refresh. You can also upgrade your plan or adjust your billing settings from the same screen.

To learn more, you can read about [Accounts](/account-and-subscription/account-management), [Billing](/account-and-subscription/billing), or [Tokens](/account-and-subscription/tokens).

## Applications

On this page, you can manage your connections to third-party applications such as [Supabase](/integrations/supabase), [Netlify](/integrations/netlify), [Figma](/integrations/figma), and [GitHub](/integrations/git).

## Cloud

This page allows you to view your included monthly usage statistics and all custom domains purchased through Bolt associated with your account.

## Knowledge

Knowledge gives you a steady layer of background instructions **across all of your projects** that Bolt follows. It gives Bolt a reliable sense of context, allowing you to include things like goals, style expectations, terminology, constraints, and workflow habits. Instead of repeating these details in every prompt, you can place them in Knowledge so the model can use them automatically.

If you want to set knowledge for a specific project that does not apply to your other projects, you can add Project Knowledge directly in your [Project Settings](/building/using-bolt/project-settings).

## Connectors (MCP)

Use the Connectors (MCP) page to connect Bolt to the apps and data sources you use, like Notion, Linear, GitHub, or others. Bolt offers built-in connectors for several tools, and you can also add custom connectors. To learn more, see [Connect to an MCP server](/building/using-bolt/connect-mcp).

## Add-on features

Add-on features extend what Bolt can do. The following options are available:

* **Dynamic reasoning**: Uses deeper reasoning to produce more accurate results for complex prompts, such as multi-step logic, debugging, or architectural decisions. Because this setting requires more processing per prompt, it uses more tokens. Consider turning it on only when you need deeper reasoning, then turning it off again.
* **Image generation**: Creates images from text descriptions directly in your conversation. Image generation produces high-quality custom images, but uses significantly more tokens than text-based prompts. To learn more, see [Generate AI images for your project](/building/using-bolt/interacting-ai#generate-ai-images-for-your-project).
