Settings, Curator and Livo Plus
Version 9 · Last updated 12 November 2026
Settings is short on purpose. Most of what you need day to day is under Organize.
Your name
Settings › Your Name is the name stamped on the Time Capsules you seal, signed on the stories you write, and filled in as “From” when you make a gift. It also makes you a Person in your People list, marked “This is Me”.
Your look
Settings › Appearance offers five palettes: Charcoal (the darkest, the default), Slate and Spring (dark, with white lettering), Daylight (a warm off-white page with dark lettering and a teal accent, for daytime and for anyone who finds dark screens hard to read) and Evening (deep teal with cream). Photos are always shown on black whichever you choose.
Story Display
Show Names Instead of “I” changes how a story reads on screen only; the story you wrote is never rewritten.
How much to show: Curator
The Curator switch, part of Livo Plus (without Plus, a tap on it shows what Plus is). Off, Livo is the essentials: Gallery, Memories, Capsules, People, Places and Events, with the other tools together under Curator in Organize. On, everything, everywhere: Scan Prints, OneDrive, the Family Library, Buckets, Kinds and more. Nothing you made is hidden or changed either way. See Curator. The Microsoft account rows (OneDrive Accounts, Family Share) appear here only with Curator on.
Livo Search
What Livo has learned lists what you have taught Livo Search: the meanings you confirmed (“the cabin” is one of your places), your recent searches, what you open and share (which only orders suggestions), the searches you run often, and names you chose not to add. Swipe a line to forget it, or Clear a list. Livo never learns from a guess.
About
Settings › About is the last section of Settings: scroll to the bottom. It holds About Livo (what Livo is and the two promises), Getting Started, the Privacy Policy and Support, Livo Plus (whether it is on, What’s free, and what Plus adds, and Restore Purchases), the version, the build and a Content line that names the version of each guide page on your phone, and Send Feedback, which opens a mail to feedback@livoenterprises.com with the build and your phone’s details filled in.
What is free
Livo is free, with no count of photos, Memories, capsules or gifts. Livo Plus is the one purchase: it adds the gift book, poster and print-size photos with names, Order prints, Give it again, gift videos without the “with Livo” line, Stitch videos, Edit Segments, Save Frame as Photo, and Curator. It never takes anything away, and nothing you have made is ever locked. The whole list: Free, and Livo Plus.
