Your Settings screen is organized into a few sections: Account, Employment, Payroll & Tax, Notifications, Schedule, Work Log, Security, Legal, and About.
Open Settings from the header gear menu:
Account
- Open Settings, then Account.
- Under Account Settings, your Account email is shown. Tap Change Account Email Address to update it — you’ll need to confirm the change from both your current and new inboxes.
- Below that, tap Edit to update your name, phone number, and address.
- Enter your First name (legal), Last name (legal), and optionally your Nickname / preferred name, then update your Phone number and address.
- Tap Save, or Cancel to discard your changes.
Employment
- Open Settings, then Employment.
- Under Emergency contact, review the name, relationship, and phone number on file. Tap Update emergency contact to change it.
- If you’re required to provide work authorization, you’ll also see Work permit here. Tap Manage work permit to update your expiry date or document — see Updating your work authorization.
Note: The Work permit section only appears if your employment requires it — most Canadian citizens and permanent residents won't see it.
Other sections
- Payroll & Tax shows your pay cycle (read-only — your employer sets this, including Weekly) and your TD1 tax information. RoostPay doesn’t collect banking details; your employer pays your net wages outside the app.
- Notifications lets you control how RoostPay reaches you — see Managing notifications and account security for details.
- Schedule lets you turn on external calendar sync (Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, etc.) so your shifts and events show up in your own calendar app.
- Work Log shows your past shifts and time-off entries for a month or pay period, with filters for shifts, vacation, and sick days.
- Security covers your password, passkeys, and devices — see Managing notifications and account security for details.
- Legal contains RoostPay’s privacy policy and terms of service (both open on roostpay.ca), plus a request for a copy of your personal data.
- About shows the version and build on this device, and What’s new when release notes have been published.
