PrivateChief Preferences: Appearance, Response Style and Wall Unit Settings
Preferences is where PrivateChief adjusts to you: how each device looks, how much your Chief says, and how the wall unit greets the family and listens. The household in this walkthrough, the Ashfords, is invented for the demonstration.

0:00Make it yours
Preferences is where PrivateChief adjusts to you: how it looks, how much it says, and how the wall unit behaves.
0:10Palette, typeface and version
Choose a palette, Obsidian, Navy or Ivory, and a typeface, for each device. The wall unit keeps a dark palette whatever you choose. Below that is the version you are running, with a button to check for updates.
0:26Greetings, quiet hours and response style
The wall unit can greet each family member by name when they arrive, with quiet hours when it stays silent. And your response style sets how much your Chief says: brief, normal or detailed.
0:41Wall unit settings, idle lock and privacy
The wall unit's own settings include how easily it wakes, which helps when the television is on. The Mac and Windows apps can lock themselves when idle. And the privacy policy, the service agreement, and a way to request your data or its deletion are always one tap away.
