App Settings are where you configure your app's settings to adjust the app to your business needs. In App Settings, you can configure various items, including the app form, views, graphs, notifications, and more.
You can make changes to the App Settings whenever you need, even after the app is activated.

This article covers how to open the "App Settings" screen and how to apply the configured settings to the app.
For details on the setting options, refer to App Setting Options.

To navigate to the "App Settings" screen, click either of the following buttons on the "View" screen or the "Record Details" screen.

• (The App Settings icon):
  Click this icon to open the "App Settings" screen.

• (The App Settings Menu icon):
  Click this icon to display a menu of shortcuts to each settings screen. The details are as follows:

After making changes to the App Settings, you need to click Update App on the upper right side of the screen to apply the changes to the app.
When there are any setting changes that are not yet applied to the app, the banner message "Setting Changes Are Not Applied" appears on the upper part of the screen, and the Update App button becomes clickable. After you click the Update App button and select Update App on the confirmation dialog, the changes will be applied to the app and the banner message will disappear.

It is also possible to save the changes made to the App Settings as a draft or discard the changes. For details, refer to the following page:

App Settings can be accessed only by Kintone users & system Administrators and users with the permission to manage the app. The App Settings icon is only displayed for Kintone users & system Administrators and users with permission to manage the app.

To configure the permission to manage the app, contact the user who currently has the permission to manage the app, and ask the user to carry out the following steps.

1. Click the App Settings icon (the gear-shaped icon) at the upper right of the "View" screen.
   

2. Navigate to the "App Settings" screen, select the App Settings tab, and then click App under Permissions.

3. In the User, group and department to grant permissions to section of the "Permissions for App" screen, add the users, groups, or departments to whom you want to grant app management permissions.
   

4. Select the Manage app option for the users, groups, or departments you have added.
   Note that, in the permission settings, any permission set that is located higher on the list takes precedence.
