    Hi all, appreciate the interest in this idea and its importance to help reduce eye strain and headaches for improved user comfort, especially during extended usage.

    We understand that this has been a longstanding request, and we genuinely appreciate your patience and dedication to making Xero an even better platform for all.

    While this may be a function we look to explore in the long-term, we want to be upfront that this is not something we'll be developing in the near term due to the complexities involved and the need to prioritise other impactful updates. We know that this may be disappointing but hope that this provides some clarity.

    In the meantime, as some users have mentioned you may be able to use a third-party app like Google's High Contrast, which allows you to change the colour on your screen to make it easier to read.

    I have an eye condition and anything on a white background is extremely difficult to work with after about 10 mins. Wanting to use a dark screen for me and millions of other people is not just a nice to have it's a must have.

    I have a MacBook, like all Apple products it allows users to change everything to dark mode, this includes websites, documents (including MS,) apps etcetc. However not all websites change unfortunately Xero being one of them. The same is true with third-party apps like Google, Darker etc they don't convert the same stubborn websites either.

    So come on Xero do your bit for accessibility and visually impaired users and add some coding that allows users to use a dark screen.
