Overview & background
The Settings tab is where Project Admins update critical project details. Users who are not Project Admins are not able to view this page.

Click on the pencil icon to change the name of your project |

'Settings' tab (Mobile)
The Settings tab on mobile has many of the same features as the Settings tab on the web version of Fieldwire. On mobile, these settings have to be accessed from within each individual project. On mobile, you can choose the option to "Remove from device" to stop downloading project content and free up storage space. Removing a project from one device does not remove it from other devices. In other words, this is device-specific.
