THE HOLM GUIDE / EVERYDAY USE
Make Holm yours
A small space that fits the way you work.
Open Settings
Right-click the notch → Settings. The Holm window has a sidebar for your profile, Active now, Chat, Achievements and settings pages. Press Esc to close it. Most changes take effect after Apply; the automatic update check switch takes effect immediately.
Size and screen
Choose Small, Normal, Large or Extra large independently for the collapsed notch and expanded panel. Pop-outs and Beam prompts follow the collapsed size. Use the right-click menu to pick a screen.
Weather
If no place is saved, Holm tries Windows approximate location once at startup. Coordinates are rounded to one decimal place before saving or sending them to Open-Meteo. Windows location services must be on; you can choose a city manually instead. Forecasts refresh at most every 30 minutes.
Space for browser tabs
Settings → General → Hide over browser tabs lets the resting notch step aside over a maximized browser. Pop-outs and calls bring it back. This setting is off by default. Fullscreen games and videos hide the notch automatically.
Quiet hours
Set a start and end time to silence message pop-outs while retaining unread badges. Apps and people you allow can still interrupt.
