# Using Gryt

Source: https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use

Install it, sign in, and find your way around

Everything here is about using Gryt on your own machine. If you want to *run a
server* for other people, that's [Host Gryt](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/host). If you want to write a
bot or an addon, that's [Build on Gryt](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/build).

## Voice

Gryt cleans up your audio before any of it leaves your machine: noise
suppression, a gate, auto gain. [Voice](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use/voice) is the controls you use
day to day. [Audio processing](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use/audio) says what each setting does to
the sound, and when to leave it alone.

## On a server

What you can do on a server depends on the roles you've been given there, and
whoever runs it decides those. [Roles and permissions](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use/roles) goes
through the switches one by one. Adding your own emojis is in [Custom
emojis](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use/emojis).

## If something is broken

[Troubleshooting](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use/troubleshooting) first, then the
[FAQ](https://docs.gryt.chat/docs/use/faq). If neither helps, the bug report form is in the app under
Settings.
