# Customize your tabs in databases

By Steven Van · 2026-04-10

Keep your databases clean and easy to navigate by choosing how your tabs are displayed: Text and icon, Icon only, or Text only.

[Notion](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/notion>) databases now let each person set how their own tabs display: text and icon, text only, or icon only. The change is per-user, so switching your own view doesn't affect what teammates see. [Full announcement](<https://www.notion.so/releases/2026-04-10>).
