Startup and Advanced Settings & Privacy
Use these settings to decide when BetterDisplay starts, what reporting it permits, and how it keeps your app configuration.
Updates

App Integration
App Integration lets other software work with BetterDisplay.

Start with Startup and Privacy for launch behavior and privacy choices. Updates explains release channels and installation, while Notifications and Dock covers the app's visible presence. Integration controls access from other apps.

Advanced settings also let you import, export or reset preferences. Read the scope and consequences of those actions before using them, particularly when replacing an existing setup.
