    Hi team, we thoroughly appreciate all the feedback we’ve received from customers about the new homepage experience. We hear you and are committed to providing more customisation options, which’ll help with some of the pain points raised in this idea.

    Currently we’re exploring the ability to resize widgets and simplify widgets and allow you to remove charts, and as you'll see from my recent update on another idea we have plans for exploring 'views' in the coming months.

    It’s worth noting that currently you can "Customise" the homepage to remove widgets that you don’t want to see and simplify your view.

    We’d also like to acknowledge feedback here on the red colouring - To provide some insight this was intentional, and is used to highlight what needs attention, which actually came from our early feedback and testing. However, we appreciate hearing from more users on this and will continue to…

    The new Xero homepage is cluttered, slow, and a masterclass in how to make good software worse.

    What was once a practical, efficient dashboard now feels like it was designed by someone who does not actually run a business. It is visually noisy, harder to scan, and actively wastes time.

    This change is being forced on paying customers with no genuine option to keep the layout that actually worked. That is not progress. That is removing functionality and calling it “design”.

    We pay for this software to run our businesses efficiently, not to beta test a redesign that prioritises appearance over usability.

    Hi team, while the status of this idea remains unchanged from our last post we did want to provide an update in the channel here.

    As shared previously there's the possibility of exploring third-party apps like Google's High Contrast, which allows you to change the colour on your screen so it's easier to read.

    Our Xero Accounting app is a bit of a different kettle of fish and for iOS users there is a dark mode available from the 'Appearance' option that you can navigate to from the 3 dot menu in the top right of the app screen.

    Though we fully understand and appreciate needs for wanting dark mode, the ability to develop this requires resource from across all areas of product to implement in the web version. Providing dark mode is not on our current roadmap.

    If there are any further changes to share we will provide further…

    I am amazed that this is not available. This would help the elderly and people with eyesight disabilities/ I am one of them.
