Mobile settings and troubleshooting
Change language, appearance and notifications, fix access problems and send a useful support request.
Updated
Start in Account for your personal details, business settings, subscription and support. Menu grouping can vary by app version: a setting may appear directly in Account or inside a group such as preferences or payments.
1. Adjust the app
- Open Account and find the setting you want.
- Use Language to choose an available app language. For German business accounts, German and English are available.
- Use Appearance for light, dark or system appearance.
- Open Notifications to review the available reminder preferences.
- Save changes where a Save button is shown.
Phone-level notification permission is separate from Norman's notification preferences. If reminders do not appear, check both and any Focus/Do Not Disturb settings. Notifications are a convenience, not a substitute for checking your deadlines.
Biometric unlock, where supported and enabled, helps you reopen the app. It does not replace the credentials needed for a fresh sign-in.
2. The screen is loading or information is missing
- Check your connection and install available updates from the official stores.
- Reopen the affected screen and use its refresh or retry control.
- Check your login email, business and any list filters.
- For missing bank entries, follow bank troubleshooting.
- Before retrying a payment, invoice send or tax submission, check whether the first attempt succeeded.
If a web screen opens inside Norman, let it finish loading. For a complex form, try the same task in the web app. Do not assume every desktop control has a native equivalent.
Avoid reinstalling as the first step. Saved server records and unfinished local work are different: signing out or reinstalling may discard unsent text or incomplete uploads.
3. Camera, microphone or login problems
- Camera or photos: check Norman's access in your phone settings, or use a saved PDF.
- Microphone: check microphone/speech permission, or type your question.
- Password: use Forgot password with your existing account email.
- Two-factor code: use the code for the current sign-in attempt. Never share it with support.
- Repeated attempts blocked: wait before trying again rather than repeatedly submitting.
4. Contact support
Open Account → Support, or email support@norman.finance.
Include the account email, phone model, OS version, Norman version, the screen and steps, the approximate time, and the exact error. A screenshot with unrelated personal or financial details hidden is helpful. State whether you use the public store app or a TestFlight/test build.
Never include passwords, one-time codes, magic login links, bank credentials or full payment-card details.
For payment access specifically, read subscriptions and restoring purchases.
