## Create a new Space

1. Click on the name of the current space at the top of the screen.
2. Click the `+` button in the dropdown menu.

## Who is the Space owner?

The person who creates a Space is its owner. The owner controls sharing, can rename the Space, transfer ownership, and delete it. Collaborators who are invited to a Space see **Leave space** instead of **Delete**. Removing a shared Space only removes your access; it does not delete any content.

## Rename or customize a Space

Click the three-dot menu next to the Space name and select **Settings**. From here you can:

- Rename the Space (owner) or set an alias (collaborators)
- Choose a color for the Space

## Transfer a Space to another person

The owner of a Space can transfer ownership to another user.

1. Click the three-dot menu next to the Space name.
2. Select **Transfer**.
3. Enter the new owner’s email address.
4. Click **Transfer this space**. A confirmation email is sent to the new owner with instructions for accepting the transfer.

Transfer is only available to the current owner of the Space.

## Delete a Space you own or leave a shared Space

**Owner**: Click the three-dot menu next to the Space name and select **Delete**. This permanently deletes the Space and all its content for everyone.

**Collaborator**: The same menu shows **Leave space**, which removes the Space from your account only. Everyone else keeps their access and content.

**Phone app**: The same menu also has **Remove from this device**. The Space leaves your phone but stays in your account, and you can bring it back with **Add from Cloud**. Deleting or leaving a synced Space needs a connection.
