By the end of this guide you'll set your interface language and the preferences that shape how the calendar and preparation indicators work.
Open Profile
Sidebar → Profile (Profile Settings). Language, preparation tracking and calendar preferences all live here.
Change language
Under Select language, choose EN, IT or ES.
The whole app interface switches to that language. Your choice is saved to your account so it follows you on other devices when you sign in.
GapFiller is available entirely in English, Italian and Spanish today. We'll add more languages in the future.
Dates and some formats also follow your language (for example how dates are displayed).
Lesson preparation tracking
The Lesson Preparation Tracking section controls whether preparation indicators appear across GapFiller.
Toggle Show preparation tracking:
- Enabled — prepared / needs-prep cues on the calendar, curriculum stats, the lesson toggle, and bulk preparation actions
- Disabled — those indicators stay hidden if you prefer a quieter calendar
When tracking is on, prepared lessons stand out more clearly in calendar views. You still mark each lesson Prepared or Needs Prep from the lesson itself.
Calendar preferences
Expand the Calendar section on Profile.
Default calendar view
Choose how the calendar opens next time:
| Option | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Automatic (based on device) | Follows your device (for example Day on phones) |
| Day / Week / Month / Stream | Always opens that view |
Visible hours (day & week)
Controls the timed grid in Day and Week views. All-day events stay visible either way.
- Full day (00:00–23:59)
- Work day (07:30–18:30)
- School day (07:30–14:00)
- Custom — set start and end, then Apply times
Week view columns
Pick which weekdays appear as columns in Week view (Monday–Sunday week):
- All seven days

- Choose days — pick specific days
Changes save as you choose them.
Lesson and personal colours
Grade colours on the calendar (and the colour for personal events) are under School → Appearance, not Profile. See Calendar colours for your grades.
