 After installing the app and opening it for the first time, you'll encounter this popup:

-In this dialog, you have to enter the base URL of your instance. The port is required, except for the port number matching the protocol (443 for HTTPS or 80 for HTTP).
+Go through the welcome dialog one by one, you should read their content, but you don't have to.
 
-This address will be checked, so no worry about entering the wrong one. The disadvantage of this is that your server has to be running even if you don't want to chat with it at that moment. The checkup only happens on initial setup for now. If you move your server or the server goes down and you try to send a message to it, there is a chance of the app crashing. Don't worry, just go into the side menu and click the settings button to change it.

For that, open the sidebar (swipe from the left to right or click the icon in the top left corner) and click on settings. There you'll find all app-related settings, you should go through them, but for the initial setup, only the first one is important.

+This address will be checked, so no worry about entering the wrong one. The disadvantage of this is that your server has to be running even if you don't want to chat with it at that moment. If you set the host once, and your server is offline, the requests will fail, but the host will stay saved if you don't change it yourself. Don't worry, just go into the side menu and click the settings button to change it.
 
 That's it, you can now just chat. Enter a message into the box at the bottom and click the send icon.
 
 ## Side Menu
 
-The button on the top left opens the menu. In it, you have three options: `New Chat`, `Ask before Deletion` and `Set Host`. The first option clears the chat (-> creates a new one), the second one opens a new dialog that has a toggle you can toggle if you don't want to be asked or want to be asked again before deleting a chat, and the third option reopens the host dialog from the initial start of the app to adapt to changing hosts.
+The button on the top left opens the menu. In it, you have two options: `New Chat` and `Settings`. The first option creates a new chat, and the second one opens the settings screen where you can change how everything works.
 
-![side menu](assets/screenshots/other/s02.png)
+Below that are all the chats. To delete one, swipe it from left to right. To rename the chat tab and hold it until a popup dialog appears. In it, you can change the title or tab the sparkle icon to let AI find one for you. This is not affected by the "generate title" setting.
 
-Note: The same effect as the `New Chat` option has the button on the top right of the main screen.

 ## Model Selector
 
 You can access the model selector by tapping on the `<selector>` text in the top middle or the name of the currently selected model in the same spot. Then you'll get the following bottom sheet:
 
-![model selector](assets/screenshots/other/s03.png)
+![model selector](assets/screenshots/other/s05.png)
 
 This will display all the models currently installed in your Ollama server instance.
 
 Models with an image-like icon next to them allow multimodal input. The one shown in the image, `llava`, supports exactly that.
 
 The models with a star next to them are recommended models. They have been selected by me (hehe) to be listed as that. Read more under [Custom Builds](#custom-builds).
 
-The `Add Model` button does nothing at the moment, it just opens a dialog that lists steps on how to add a model to an instance. For safety reasons, I didn't add the ability to add a model directly via name in the app.

+// allow multiple chats

 ```
 
 They can be found at the top of `lib/main.dart`. `useHost` and `useModel` decide whether you want `fixedHost` and `fixedModel` to control anything. `fixedHost` and `fixedModel` decide about the value that has to be used. That can be practical in case you try to create an app specific to your instance.
 
-The last one, `recommendedModels`, is a list of models that will be listed as recommended in the [Model Selector](#model-selector). They are more like personal preferences. If empty, no model will be preferred.
+`recommendedModels` is a list of models that will be listed as recommended in the [Model Selector](#model-selector). They are more like personal preferences. If empty, no model will be preferred.

+`allowSettings` will disable the settings screen. But it will also disable the welcome dialog at first startup and the ability to rename chats.
+
+`allowMultipleChats` simply removes the `New Chat` option in the [Side Menu](#side-menu). And will load up the only available chat on app startup.
