 ### Opening "Your settings"
When clicked, it will give you access to the following controls:

###  Your Avatar  shows your settings
Once settings are selected and saved, your avatar is decorated accordingly:
- L - Leading - Blue
- O - Observing - Grey
- Send Icon - Sharing - Purple
- Checkmark Icon - Estimate in  place - Green

The setting of automatically joining a session has no decoration associated with it. The user avatar presence makes this clear.

### Only one user can Lead. Only once user can Share at the same time
Here is how this shows up for the user:

### Sharing, how does it work?

When sharing is selected, a link to the next story you open is made available only to team members who participated in the last story estimation you just completed. 

Here is how it will appear for your team members. Clicking the link will bring team members to the story next up for discussion.

### Worried about unintentionally sharing a story with your team?
Don't worry; we thought about this and built in the following controls: 
1. You select Sharing when you need to during refinement
2. Stories are only shared with team members who click the "Join" button in the same Jira Issue in Smart Guess within the last 15 minutes 
3. One-click action to "Clear your settings" allows an easy way to turn off sharing when refinement is complete:
