# 6. Setting Your Language and Measurement Preferences

VirtualPools allows you to adjust the platform to match your regional standards and personal workflow. You can select your preferred language and define which measurement units are used throughout the app.
These settings affect how dimensions are displayed in your projects, ensuring clarity when designing and presenting to clients. You can update your language and measurement preferences at any time, either directly in the app or through the VirtualPools dashboard.

You can update your preferences both in the**&#160;Dashboard** and in the **App**.
