Sign out
Section titled “Sign out”Choose Log Out from the ⋯ menu or the Settings menu. Signing out:
- Ends your session on this device.
- Clears your stored API keys and in-session data, so you enter them again next time.
- Keeps your onboarding progress, so you are not walked through setup again.
See Signing In & Your Account for sign-in options and account details.
Quit Dusky
Section titled “Quit Dusky”Choose Quit Application from the menu to close Dusky completely. Quitting is confirmed with a dialog so you do not close the app mid-interview by accident.
