# Your profile and interests

> Tap YOU for your profile — your photo and username, your posts, yards and points, your streak and level, what you saved, your people, what you made, and the interests that steer what reaches you.

Tap **YOU** — your picture on the bar at the bottom of the screen — to open your profile. Settings are behind the gear at the top right.

## What's on it

- Your photo and your username in the middle. Tap the photo to change it, and the pencil beside your @username to change your username. See [Change your photo and username](/guides/change-your-photo-and-username/).
- Three figures in a row: your **posts**, your **yards** and your **points**.
- Two tiles: your **streak** — how many days in a row, with a blue disc for each freeze you have — and your **level**, with the next one up.
- **How points, streaks and levels work** explains them all. See [Points, streaks and your figures](/guides/points-and-streaks/).
- Tiles to open **Saved** — posts you kept from their three-dot menu — **Your people** — friends who came in through your links, see [Bring your friends in](/guides/bring-your-friends/) — and **What you made** — everything you posted and every game you made, to edit or delete, see [What you made](/guides/what-you-made/).
- **Add your birthday**, if it's missing. See [Add your birthday](/guides/add-your-birthday/).
- The switch for your notifications on this device. See [Turn on notifications](/guides/turn-on-notifications/).
- **Your yards**, then **Your posts** as a grid of tiles. Tap **See all** for every one.

## What you're into

Near the bottom, **What you’re into** lists your interests. They steer what reaches you on the Yard.

1. Scroll to **What you’re into**.
2. Tap **Add an interest** and type it in your own words — a music style, a school, a food.
3. Tap an interest to change its words, or its **×** to remove it.

Some interests are ones you typed. Others the Yard works out from what you post and answer. Changing one of those makes it yours; removing it stops the Yard from using it.

## Settings

The gear at the top right opens **Settings**: **What you hear about**, your location, your photo and username, **Hidden posts**, blocked users, the theme and typeface, **Log out** and **Delete account**. See [Log out, or delete your account](/guides/log-out-or-delete-your-account/).
