# Self Service Settings
> Configure Self Service portal settings in Iru Endpoint. Customize branding, enable platforms, set categories, and control which items users can install.
### About Self Service Settings
Self Service acts as an internal app store for your users to self-install applications you make available to them. It provides a centralized way for users to discover and install approved applications while maintaining security and compliance standards.
As of **April 8, 2026**, apps were updated from **Kandji** 
to **Iru** 
branding. The **Self Service** app name changed from **Kandji Self Service** to **Iru Self Service**. Please update **scripts, automations, and utilities** that still reference the old app names. For more information, see [Iru Brand Update](/en/iru/platform-overview/iru-brand-update) and [Upgrade to Iru](/en/iru/platform-overview/upgrade-to-iru).
### How It Works
Self Service is automatically installed on all enrolled devices and provides a customizable interface for application distribution. On macOS devices, **Iru Self Service** is installed in the `/Applications` folder, while on iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS devices, the **Iru Self Service** App Store app appears on users' Home Screens. Administrators can customize the appearance, organization, and functionality to match their organization's branding and requirements.
### Configuring Self Service
Self Service allows users to install apps in macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS. Auto Apps and Managed OS are available only in macOS. To customize Self Service:
Navigate to the **Library** section in the left-hand navigation bar.
Select the **Self Service settings** tab.
Click **Customize**.
### Configuring Branding and Preview
You can customize the Self Service app with your company's name, logo, or other information. There are built-in previews to see how Self Service will look to your users, in both Light and Dark Modes and on each Apple platform.
The Self Service preview may not show up on lower-resolution displays, including Retina displays in High DPI mode.
#### Configuring Header and Subheader
You can set a custom title and optional message for the Self Service banner. One good use of this space: to provide users IT-support contact information.
Enter **Header** text that will be displayed in the Self Service header banner.
Enter **Subheader** text that will be displayed under the header.
#### Configuring Logo
Upload your company's logo, which will be displayed next to the header in Self Service. A square logo (128x128 pixels) in PNG format with a transparent background is recommended.
Click the **Upload** link, locate your logo in the Finder, and click the **Open** button.
Your logo will be displayed where the default logo was previously, and you will see it in the preview.
After you upload a custom logo, you can also add a logo for computers in Dark Mode.
To remove the custom logos:
Hover over the custom logo in the **Customize** Self Service panel.
Click the **Trash** button. Your custom logo will be replaced with the default logo.
### Managing Categories
Several default categories are provided to help organize your Self Service apps. **Recommended** and **All** are the first two categories and will always be available. Other categories can be added, reordered, renamed, or deleted.
#### Adding a Category
Click **Add category** in the bottom right corner of the **Categories** section.
Enter a **Name** for the new category (maximum 64 characters in length).
Enter an optional **Description** for the category.
Optionally, enter a search term for an icon in the Search field.
Choose an icon for the category.
#### Changing the Category Order
Categories will display in Self Service in the same order in which they appear on the Self Service Settings page.
Drag the categories using the slide bars on the left side of the Categories section.
#### Editing or Deleting an Existing Category
Click the three dots to the right of the category you want to edit or delete.
Click **Edit** to change the category name, description, or icon.
Click **Delete** to delete the category. You can't delete the Recommended or All categories.
### Considerations
Align logo, colors, and header copy so Self Service feels like one catalog. Prefer square **128×128** pixel **PNG** logos with a transparent background, then add a **Dark Mode** logo after you customize Light Mode.
Use the built-in previews for Light Mode, Dark Mode, and each platform before you rely on a design in production. The in-page preview may not appear on lower-resolution displays, including Retina displays in High DPI mode.
Order and name categories for quick scanning, choose icons that match each group’s purpose, and remember **Recommended** and **All** cannot be deleted. Revisit categories as your app portfolio changes.
Self Service is available on **macOS**, **iOS**, **iPadOS**, and **visionOS**. Spot-check the catalog on each platform your organization supports.
Use **Header** and **Subheader** for IT contact details and short guidance users should see at the top of Self Service.
Tell users how to open Self Service and what it is for.
