Edit your profile details
Open Profile from the bottom navigation, then choose Edit. Review your Name, Username, Home base, and Bio.
Scroll for Profile style and your social links. Use Save when your edits are ready, or Cancel to leave without applying them.
Profile style lets you customize your badge colour, Avatar ring and Banner accent where available. Some choices require Idle Plus or Idle Pro. The app's badge control is called Verification badge; changing its colour does not verify your identity. See Profile badges and Idle Plus and Pro.
Open your garage
On your profile, choose Garage, then Open to enter My Garage. Tap a vehicle for its details.
The primary vehicle is marked Primary and can appear around Idle next to your name. Swipe a vehicle left to reveal Edit and Delete; review carefully before changing or removing a vehicle.
Add a vehicle
Use the + control in My Garage to open the vehicle form. Review Car or Bike, then add the year, make, model, and trim where available.
The form also has Make primary and Add photos entries. Frame each chosen photo, position plate blur if you use it, then tap Use photo. Tap Add to create the vehicle.
Update your vehicle photos
- Open Profile > Garage > Open, swipe your vehicle left and tap Edit.
- Under Garage photos, use Add photos or Add more. Frame each photo, drag to reposition or pinch to zoom, then tap Use photo.
- Drag thumbnails to change their order; the first is the Lead photo. Tap a thumbnail's x to remove that photo.
- Tap Save to apply your vehicle edits.
Record your build and performance
Open a vehicle, scroll to Build & Performance, and choose Manage.
- Add ModificationRecord the part, category, brand, and useful installation details. A supporting-photo entry is available.
- Add Power FigureRecord how the figure was determined and whether it is wheel or crank output.
- Add Performance ResultRecord the measurement and run details, with optional photo proof where supported.
Complete the record details, then tap Save. Open an existing record from the list to edit it.
Build & Performance is a record added by the vehicle owner. Idle has not confirmed those figures, and an attached photo does not guarantee their accuracy.
Keep power figures in context
The Add Power Figure form separates the reporting method, Wheel or Crank, horsepower and torque, and setup notes.
Enter the figures you want to record and explain how they were measured. Include useful setup details so other people can understand them.
Find the vehicle’s fuel tools
In vehicle details, scroll to Vehicle Tools to find Fuel Type and Ethanol Calculator.
Saved fuel details can make blend planning faster. Review your own saved values before using them. Read E85 and fuel tools for calculator guidance.
Control what appears on your profile
From Home, open your avatar sidebar, then Settings → Privacy & Safety. In Visible on profile, review Show full name, Show city, Show primary vehicle, Show social links, and Show attendance publicly.
Separate profile-access choices include Everyone, Connections only, and Hidden. Choose the settings appropriate for what you want others to see.
Save your profile name
Open Profile → Edit, change Name, and tap Save. Return to your profile to check the name. Your display name and username are separate fields.
Add a modification
Open Garage → Open → your vehicle → Build & Performance → Manage → Add Modification. Enter the record details, review Currently installed, and choose Save.
Enter the modification name and any details you want to keep. Set Currently installed to match whether the part is on your vehicle. Add a photo or installation date if useful.
Check the record in your Build list
After saving, return to Build and check that the new modification is listed.
Adding a modification does not add a power figure. Use Add Power Figure separately if you want to record one.
Review a modification
Open the modification to review its details and installation status. Choose Save for changes or Cancel to leave it as it was.
Check that the category and installation status show what you intended before saving.
Achievements and host standing
In app versions with achievements, tap the achievement area beside your profile identity to see attended and hosted milestones, progress, Rising Host, and eligible host standing. You can also view achievements on profiles you are allowed to access, subject to attendance privacy. See the achievements guide for what counts and why ranking can change.
Profile photo and banner
Use your own profile's photo or banner controls to choose and adjust an image, then save. If the current banner preview fails to load, use Retry; a failed preview does not mean the banner was removed. Another driver's profile does not give you these editing controls.
Move around your profile
Tap or swipe between Pulse, Garage, and Groups. Use Pulse filters to narrow profile posts, and tap Attended, Hosted, or Connections to open that history or list. Each tab keeps its own place as you move between them.
A joined month and year, when available, indicates when the Idle profile was created. It does not indicate verification or a paid membership.
