# Preferences

Whether the work-session widget sits in your header, and whether it follows you into the rest of SorviAI.

Preferences holds two switches, both about the same control: the work-session widget in the top bar, which starts a break or ends your day without taking you off the page you are on.

![The Preferences screen, headed Preferences above the line How Worklink shows up for you. These settings are yours alone and follow you to any device you sign in on. A Header Widget section reads The work-session control in the top bar, then two rows: Show Worklink widget in the header, switched on and blue, and an indented Show the widget across all SorviAI apps, switched off and grey.](https://www.sorviai.com/help/worklink/settings/preferences-switches.png)

*The second switch is indented under the first, and greys out when the first is off.*

## The two switches

- **Show Worklink widget in the header** (the main switch): Puts the clock pill and the check-out button in the top bar. Turn it off and the header goes quiet; checking in and out still works from My Attendance.
- **Show the widget across all SorviAI apps** (the follow-on): Keeps the widget in the header everywhere, not only inside Worklink. Leave it off to see the widget in Worklink alone.

- Go to **Worklink Settings > Preferences**.
- Turn **Show Worklink widget in the header** on or off.
- With it on, decide whether the widget should follow you into Finance, Inventory and the rest, using the second switch.

There is no Save on this screen. Each switch saves as you set it and the header above repaints straight away, which is the whole preview the setting needs.

> **Note:**
>
> **The second switch greys out rather than disappearing**
>
> Turning the main switch off leaves the across-apps switch visible but disabled. A control that vanishes looks like a bug; one that greys out explains itself.

> **Tip:**
>
> **Turning the widget off does not stop your day being recorded**
>
> It removes the shortcut, nothing else. Your attendance still comes from check in and check out, wherever you do them.
