Languages

The language is set at the beginning after the first login based on the application default settings, which can be configured by the Flexopus administrators, however as a user you can change it at any time for your user profile. Currently, the following languages are supported by the application:

  1. English 🇬🇧
  2. German 🇩🇪
  3. French 🇫🇷
  4. Italian 🇮🇹
  5. Hungarian 🇭🇺
  6. Japanese 🇯🇵
  7. Rumanian 🇷🇴
  8. Russian 🇷🇺
  9. Turkish 🇹🇷
  10. Spanish 🇪🇸
  11. Chinese 🇨🇳
💡
Note! The source language of the application is English, the other languages are translated automatically from English and then corrected manually by a translator. Still, for the best user experience, we recommend using the English or German language if possible.

Application themes

The application is supporting a light (white) and a dark (black) theme. The default setting is set to system, which is adapting the design based on your browser default settings. You can select which theme you prefer more.

💡
Note! The application default development theme is the dark (black) theme, therefore it may be better to use, however you can use the white theme as well. We are improving the white theme step-by-step release-by-release.

Time zone

The time zone feature is developed for customers having offices across multiple time zones. For example, an office in Berlin (GMT+1) and an office in New York (GMT-07:00). Covering the reservation flow for users on the US and in Germany is only possible if the time zone is selected in a right way. Users in the US want to book by seeing the times and the offices available in their time zone, and the German users want to see everything in the German time zone.

If your organization is offering flexible offices in multiple time zones, then you can select the time zone based on your preferences. This time zone will also be used in the reservation process. By default, the organizations default time zone will be selected.


Notifications

A detailed description about the notifications can be found here:

Notifications: Stay informed on bookings

Privacy setting

On the preferences, you can find an additional setting called hide profile. This setting is only available if your Flexopus administrators allow you to hide your profile and bookings from other users. It's an optional privacy setting, specific for every organization. If your organization allows deciding individually about their privacy settings, then you can hide your profile from others. Once you activate the function, the other users:

  • cannot search for your profile in the 'search' menu point.
  • cannot see your reservation on the live plan.

You can still see others if they allow it.
