## Managing Helm Reporistories
Used Helm repositories are possible to configure in the [Preferences](/getting-started/preferences). Lens app will fetch available Helm repositories from the Artifact HUB and automatically add `bitnami` repository by default if no other repositories are already configured. If any other repositories are needed to add, those can be added manually via command line. **Note!** Configured Helm repositories are added globally to user's computer, so other processes can see those as well.
