If we head back to the interface, we can see several settings available for the app as a whole. In the settings section, you can set the app name and configure a Softr subdomain, such as acme-vendor-portal.

You can also add customizations like a favicon, which is the icon displayed on the browser tab. While you can write text, usually you will import your company logo as an image to represent the app.

Note from Softr: If you are manually configuring your app settings from scratch, remember that the AI co-builder can automatically generate consistent branding, names, and even App templates to get you started faster.

In the integrations tab, you can directly connect Google Analytics to track your data. We also offer settings for progressive web apps, which allows users to add the application to their smartphone home screen.

This provides an easy shortcut and a better experience, which is very convenient for teams working in the field. If you have a global team, you can also manage localization and time zones to ensure everything fits together correctly.

In the theme section, you can set global design rules such as the heading font family. These apply app-wide so that if you decide to change fonts later, you do not have to update every individual block.

Note from Softr: While global theme settings are great for consistency, you can use the Vibe-Coding block if you ever need a highly specific, custom component that goes beyond our standard design options.

You also have color settings for the main paragraphs and the accent color. If you select a darker blue, for example, you will see the buttons and other elements using the accent color update immediately.

You have a choice between three sizing options for your app. I generally recommend sticking with M or choosing L if you need extra readability for your users.

You can also easily change the roundness of your buttons and any elements that have borders. For this project, a subtle rounding looks really good and provides a clean finish.
