Total Control Settings

Settings are at the core of AnalyStick
They are the tool to let you fully customize the app the way you want it
Control anything, from default charts settings to advanced websocket options

Powerful customization

At the heart of AnalysTick is a vast array of customization option.  This is aimed at making sure you fine tune the app to your needs, exactly the way you want it to show your data in the most efficient and impactful way

The settings section allows you to customize each aspect of the app. Any view of the app can be tailored to your need by accessing its dedicated settings page and you can also decide the way your communications settings behave (websockets and API calls)

Any change you make is immediately saved in your configuration file and reflected immediately in the app
