Why settings matter
Settings help Mibyan understand how you prefer to work. They do not replace the details you provide in each request, but they can make recurring outputs more consistent.Where everything lives
Open Settings from the sidebar. It is organized into these areas:Your account details
- Full name. Shown across your workspace.
- Phone number. If you signed up with a phone number, it is your verified sign-in identifier, so it cannot be edited directly in the field.
- Email. If your account is linked only to a phone number, add an email to receive notifications and to sign in from other devices. A new email must not already be used by another account, and you can change it later.
Custom instructions
Custom instructions are written once and apply automatically to every conversation, for example “Talk in Omani Arabic” or “Keep replies short”. They are for how you want Mibyan to behave, while memory stores facts Mibyan learns about you, and the prompt carries the details of one job.Work preferences
Preferences are useful for recurring instructions. Add preferences that should apply often, not one-time project details. Good examples:- “Prefer clear executive summaries before detailed sections.”
- “Use concise, practical language.”
- “When writing in Arabic, use modern standard Arabic unless I ask otherwise.”
- “For business plans, include assumptions, risks, and next steps.”
- “For spreadsheets, make columns easy to copy into Excel.”
- “For landing pages, prioritize mobile readability.”
- “Make everything good.”
- “Always be professional.”
- “Write a lot.”
When to update settings
Update your settings when:- Your preferred writing style changes.
- You start using Mibyan for a different type of work.
- You notice repeated output issues.
- You want a consistent default tone.
- Your team adopts a shared documentation or presentation style.
