Help
Questions, answered.
A few quick answers before your first chat. The app has its own screens after you claim an account.
Does this change my account?
No. Open the app to change a setting. This list is only a reminder.
What if a box does not apply?
Leave it. A phone you do not share does not need every shared-device line.
