Settings reference

Open Settings from the launcher (type "settings" or ⌘ ,) or from the tray menu. Every tab is explained below.

Account

Your sign-in status, plan, storage usage, and sync controls. From here you can:

• Sign in or sign out.
• See your current plan and how much sync storage you've used.
• Manage subscription — opens the billing portal in your browser.
• Sync now — trigger a manual sync.
• Redeem a license key.

Full detail: Account & licenses.

Security

Everything related to keeping your data safe:

• Recovery phrase — view, verify, or export your recovery bundle.
• Biometric unlock — enable Touch ID / Windows Hello.
• Two-factor authentication — set up a TOTP authenticator.
• Automatic backups — configure how many recent snapshots to keep.
• Restore from backup — pick an archive and restore.
• Delete account — permanent, irreversible.

Full detail: Security & recovery.

Appearance

App-wide look settings:

• Accent color — changes the highlight color used throughout the app.
• Theme — light, dark, or follow the system.

Per-note appearance (colors, opacity, fade) lives in the Note Center, not here. See Notes.

Calendar

Add calendar feeds to QuickPeach so events surface in the launcher:

• Add a feed — paste an ICS URL or choose a local ICS file.
• Sync now — pull the latest events from all feeds.
• Sync on launch — keep events current automatically every time the app opens.

Quick Launch

Your launcher hotkey. The default is ⌥ ⇧ Space (macOS) / Ctrl ⇧ Space (Windows / Linux).

To change it: click the hotkey field, press the new combo, and save. If the combo conflicts with a system shortcut, the recorder will tell you — try a different one.

Quick Notes

Defaults for new sticky notes:

• Default size — the note's starting dimensions.
• Default appearance — starting color and theme.
• Fade on blur — whether new notes fade when unfocused by default.

Individual notes can override any of these in the Note Center.

Browser

Configure which search provider QuickPeach uses for @search queries:

• Choose from the built-in list or add a custom URL template.
• The active provider is what @search <query> fires in the launcher.

Storage

• Notes folder — where your notes are stored on disk. Click to change it.
• Note format — Markdown (default, human-readable) or JSON (for tooling that prefers structured files).
• Storage overview — see how much space notes, attachments, and extension data are using. Clean up from here.

Full detail: Storage.

File Search

Control what the @file search indexes:

• Index scope — which folders to include or exclude.
• Rebuild index — force a fresh scan if results seem stale.

Extension Preferences

Per-extension settings exposed by installed plugins. Each extension that has preferences shows its own section here.

See Plugins for how to install extensions.

Integrations

• Clipboard history persistence — save clipboard history to disk so it survives restarts and is shared with extensions. Off by default.
• Discord webhook — post clipboard captures or calendar summaries to a Discord channel. Paste your webhook URL and enable it.

Updates

• Check for updates — see if a new version is available and install it.
• Release channel — switch between Stable and Early access. Early access is available to Plus and above and gets new features first.

Diagnostics

For troubleshooting and bug reports:

• Log retention — how many days of logs to keep.
• Build a diagnostic bundle — creates a redacted archive of logs and system info. Share it with a bug report to help track down issues faster.

Bundles are scrubbed of sensitive data before they're written.
