# Custom Device Modes

{% hint style="info" icon="user-lock" %}
This feature requires the **Edit Tenant** permission.
{% endhint %}

Custom Device Modes are tenant-level settings that determine how some device types behave, or what options are available to certain device types.

{% hint style="warning" icon="triangle-exclamation" %}
Changing these settings will impact all devices of said type in the tenant in question.
