# Manage members

Go to **Settings** and select **Manage members**. Everyone can see the
member list. Only admins and the owner can change it.

## Change someone's role

1. Find the person in the list.
2. Change their org role, their brain role, or both, using the menus on
   their row.

The change applies straight away. You can't change your own org role.

## Remove someone

Select the **X** on their row. You can't remove yourself or the owner.

If they owned any [routines](/assistant/schedule-a-routine), those
routines pause until an admin gives them a new owner. The same happens
if you move someone below the Write role.

ako won't let you remove the last admin on a
[restricted brain](/team/restrict-a-brain), because nobody would be left to
change who can reach it. Add another admin to that brain first.

## Hand over ownership

Only the owner can do this.

1. Select **Make owner** on the row of the person taking over.
2. Confirm.

They get full control, including billing. You stay an admin, and only
they can hand ownership back.
