In **Jestor**, the single sidebar menu shows one column of navigation, while the double menu splits navigation into two columns, giving more room for item names and longer lists.

### Why there are two menu options

Every team navigates differently: some prefer a more compact, minimalist menu, while others deal with lots of apps and tables and need more visible space at once, without scrolling or opening submenus.

### What sets the two formats apart

- **Single menu**: one column, more compact, ideal for a cleaner look
- **Double menu**: two columns, more room for full names and larger lists
- Both support favorites, organized sections, and recent items
- Both let you hide sections the user doesn't use day to day

### How to choose between the single and double menu in Jestor

1. Go to Settings and open the Menu tab
2. Choose between the single sidebar menu and the double menu
3. Customize sections, favorites, and visible items to your liking
4. Save — navigation updates immediately

### Process automation with faster navigation

Having more navigation room, in the case of the double menu, especially helps teams working across many different apps throughout the day, cutting down on clicks to switch between processes inside Jestor.
