Account Settings is your central hub for managing your personal profile, security preferences, keyboard shortcuts, controllers, Studio configuration, billing, and organization details. You can access it from the account menu in the top-right corner of the app.
The settings area is organized into three main sections — Account, Studio, and Organization — each with their own sub-tabs. What you see depends on your role in the Studio.
Accessing Account Settings
Click your avatar and name in the top-right corner of the Iris interface. A dropdown menu appears with:
Account Settings (Profile)
Security
Studio Settings
Billing (Admins and Owners only)
Organization Settings (if enabled)
Hot Keys
Controllers
Sign Out (at the bottom)
Click any item to jump directly to that section. You can also switch between sections using the tabs at the top of the settings panel.
Account Settings
Profile
Profile Photo
Click Upload Photo to choose an image from your computer.
Accepted formats: PNG or JPG, maximum 3 MB.
Once uploaded, the button changes to Update Photo and a Remove Photo button appears.
While uploading, the button shows "Uploading Photo..." and is temporarily disabled.
Full Name
Edit your name in the text field. Iris splits it into first and last name automatically.
Edit your email address in the text field. Important: Changing your email signs you out immediately. A verification email is sent to the new address — you must verify it before signing back in.
If your email is unverified, you'll see a yellow "Email Unverified" warning below the email field, along with a "Send Again" link to resend the verification email. Iris automatically sends a verification email the first time you sign in with an unverified email.
Delete Account
At the bottom of the Profile tab, click Delete Account. A confirmation dialog appears: "Are you sure you want to delete your account?" Click Delete Account to confirm or Cancel to go back.
Account deletion is permanent. You're immediately signed out and all associated data is removed. This cannot be undone.
Saving Changes
The Save Changes button in the footer is disabled until you make a change. Click it to apply your edits, or Cancel to close without saving.
Security
The Security tab manages your password and two-factor authentication.
Password: Your password is shown as a masked field (dots). Click the "Change" link to open an external page in your browser where you can set a new password.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):
Toggle on → opens an external enrollment page in your browser (scan QR code with any TOTP-compatible authenticator app)
Toggle off → 2FA is disabled immediately, no browser step needed
If enrollment fails: error notification "Failed to enroll MFA"
Hot Keys
The Hot Keys tab lets you customize keyboard shortcuts for camera controls, recording, tool switching, and more.
Use the Categories dropdown to filter shortcuts by type
Click on any shortcut to reassign it
The footer shows a Save button when you have unsaved changes and indicates whether your shortcuts differ from the defaults
Controllers
The Controllers tab has two sub-tabs:
Gamepads:
USB and Bluetooth gamepads appear automatically when connected
If none detected: "No Gamepads Detected. Make sure your gamepad is turned on and connected. You may need to push a button to wake it up."
Select a gamepad to see a visual diagram with real-time button/stick highlighting and a button mapping table
IP Controllers (Desktop app only):
Lists saved IP-based VISCA controllers
Click Add IP Controller to connect a new device
Click the settings icon on a saved controller to rename or delete
On the web version: "IP controllers cannot be managed on web. Please use the Iris application."
Studio Settings
Settings Tab
Studio Name: Edit the name and click Save Changes. Only users with update permissions (Owner/Admin) can edit this field.
Delete Studio: Visible only to users with delete permissions who have more than one Studio. Type the exact confirmation phrase to proceed. Deleting disconnects all devices and restarts the app.
Leave Studio: Visible to all non-Owner members. Removes your membership. The app reloads after you leave.
Billing Tab
Available to Admins and Owners only. Shows:
Current plan (Free, Standard, Pro, Enterprise, Custom, NFR), billing frequency, upcoming invoice
Change Plan button → plan comparison dialog with Monthly/Yearly toggle
Payment Method — view, add, or edit via Stripe portal
Cloud Usage — progress bar showing GB used vs. included amount
Invoices — past invoices with date, plan, amount, and status
For full billing details, see the Plans, Billing, and Cloud Usage article.
Organization Settings
Available when the Organizations feature is enabled for your account.
Organization Logo: Upload PNG or JPG, max 3 MB. Upload, update, or remove.
Organization Name, Website, Industry: Editable by users with update permissions. Save Changes to apply.
Delete Organization: Visible to users with delete permissions. Type confirmation phrase to proceed. Deleting disconnects all devices across all Studios in the organization and restarts the app.
If you belong to multiple organizations, use the dropdown at the top-right to switch between them.
