## Managing Connections

### Connection Status

Each connected casino shows a status indicator:

| Status          | Meaning                                          |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| 🟢 Active       | Connected and collecting bonuses normally        |
| 🟡 Attention    | Requires action (e.g., password change, CAPTCHA) |
| 🔴 Disconnected | Unable to log in — credentials may be outdated   |

### Updating Credentials

If a casino shows a yellow or red status, you may need to update your credentials:

1. Click on the casino in your connected list.
2. Select **Update Credentials**.
3. Enter your new login information.
4. Sweeps will re-verify the connection.

### Pausing a Casino

You can temporarily pause collection for a specific casino without removing it:

1. Click on the casino in your connected list.
2. Toggle **Auto-Collect** off for that casino.
3. Toggle it back on when you're ready to resume.

## Removing a Casino

To disconnect a casino from Sweeps:

1. Click on the casino in your connected list.
2. Select **Remove Casino** (or the trash icon).

  Removing a casino from Sweeps does not affect your account on the casino site. Your casino account remains active and unchanged.
