Summary
Customize your global Dumbify preferences — including language, time display, date format, time zone, default habit duration, and default tag behavior. These preferences apply across all modules in the app.

Overview

The General Settings page allows you to control how Dumbify displays time, language, and date information, and define defaults for new habits and tagged items.

Configuration

Language
Select your preferred interface language. Currently, only English is supported.

Time Format
Switch between 12-hour and 24-hour clock formats. This affects all time displays across the app.

Date Format
Choose from one of three date styles:

  • MM/DD/YYYY (default)

  • DD/MM/YYYY

  • YYYY/MM/DD

Timezone
Manually set your local timezone to ensure event times, reminders, and analytics are accurate. Dumbify will attempt to detect your timezone automatically.

Default Habit Duration
Set the number of days that new habits will last by default. The default value is 28 days, but you can adjust this to any preferred duration.

Default Tag
Assign a tag (such as Work, Personal, or Health) that will automatically be applied to new events and tasks you create.

Notes

  • Adjusting your time zone, date, or time format won’t modify existing data — only how it’s displayed.

  • The default habit duration can be changed per habit during creation.

  • The default tag helps automate organization when creating new entries.
