Tips

  • Phone and email masking: For security, phone numbers and email addresses are partially masked with asterisks in the profile view
  • Pending changes: You cannot make new phone or email changes while a previous change is still pending verification
  • Profile photo: The submit button is disabled while you're cropping a photo to prevent accidental submission
  • Contact/Bleep number: This is separate from your mobile number and is used when you're on duty - team members can use it to reach you
  • Verification reminders: If your phone or email is unverified, you can resend the verification message by selecting Resend Verification Email or Resend Mobile number Verification from the kebab menu
