Show Tooltips #
Tooltips are the little hints that appear when you hover over icons. They’re helpful when you’re learning ILYS, but you might want to turn them off once you know your way around.

Export All Stories #
From the Profile page, you can also export all your writing at once. Click Export All Stories to download everything.
This is a great way to create a complete backup.
Account Actions #
At the bottom of the Profile page, you’ll find:
- Log Out Other Sessions — Sign out everywhere else

Warning: Deleting your account cannot be undone. Export your work first if you want to keep it.
Tips #
- Keep your email current — It’s how we reach you and how you log in
- Use a strong password — Especially if your writing is personal
- Review settings periodically — Your preferences might change
- Export before major changes — Always have a backup
Your account, your control.
