Reviewer permissions gives Project Owners and Managers the ability to decide whether Reviewers can download assets from a project and/or see previous round comments. Read more about roles here.
Download Permissions (All Plans)
When enabling download permissions in a project, any user with a Reviewer role will be able to download assets, all rounds, folders and full project.
By disabling download permissions you can:
✅ Protect Work-in-Progress: Keep early rounds or unapproved assets from being downloaded.
✅ Control Final Deliverables: Allow downloads only when assets are ready to share.
Hide Comments Permissions (Team Plan Only)
When turning ON (enabling) Hide Comments in a project, any user with a Reviewer role won't be able to see past round comments.
Only current round comments will be visible.
Enabling these permissions will hide thumbnail notifications and related filters for unresolved comments and @ mentions for Reviewer roles.
✅ Curate client view: Keep internal feedback and rough passes hidden when sharing the latest work.
✅ Stay focused on current round: Reviewers see what’s relevant now, not every iteration that came before.
✅ Same asset, simpler thread: Keep versioning clean without duplicating files for each round.
Where to Manage Reviewer Permissions
Option 1: From the Share Modal
Click the “Share Project” button in the project (top right).
At the bottom click on “Manage Download Permissions”.
Option 2: From Project Settings
Click the 3-dot menu next to the Share button
Select “Project Settings”
Go to the Permissions tab
Permissions are ON (by default) on each project. Toggle OFF to restrict Reviewers from downloading assets and/or see past rounds comments while still allowing them to view, comment, and approve.
Keep in mind:
By default, Reviewers can download and see all rounds comments.
This only applies to people with the Reviewer role. Editors can always download images and see comments from all rounds.
