Take control: Settings, security, and support in your new Fold app

2 min read

Settings in the new Fold app are designed to put you in charge of your account details, security, and communication preferences from one place. ​By moving key options into a single menu, the app reduces friction when you need to update something important or respond quickly to an issue. ​

Where to find Settings

You can access Settings by tapping the icon in the top left of your home screen. ​This entry point opens a menu that gathers together banking options, documents, security tools, notification controls, and support. ​

Settings Tab overview

This layout allows you to quickly recognize where to go when you need to update something. ​The video above shows you how to open the menu, scroll through the options, and reach the most frequently used items. ​

Manage banking details and card controls

Inside Settings you can update direct deposit details, change or add payment methods, manage authorized users, and access your statements. ​You can also lock your debit card or report it lost from the same area, giving you a fast way to respond if something does not look right. ​

Having these tools in one place means fewer calls to support and faster resolution when your situation changes, like switching jobs or updating bank accounts. ​

Documents, security, and notifications

Settings is also where you can download tax documents, making it easier to gather what you need when preparing returns or working with an advisor. ​Keeping documents accessible in‑app helps avoid searching through old emails or external portals. ​Additional security options also live in Settings. You can enable Face ID, update your password, and review other sign‑in options that help protect your account. ​

Support and account control

If you ever need help, you can contact support directly from Settings, using the channels Fold offers. ​This centralization is meant to shorten the distance between noticing an issue and getting assistance. ​

Settings is also where you can initiate account deletion if you decide to close your Fold account, giving you full control over your relationship with the app. ​Placing this option in Settings keeps it accessible while still requiring deliberate action, which is a common practice for financial platforms.
