246 votesHi team, we appreciate all the feedback this idea has received over time. With our reimagined navigation this is something our product teams considered closely, however there is a bit of work involved to achieve what's being asked and we want to be open it's not in the roadmap right now. However, we're keeping a pulse on the feedback here and will be sure to share if there's any progress. Thanks

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…

Hi Lyn, thanks for adding your feedback on our prototype for the new Xero homepage in regards to running totals for VAT/GST/BAS and Corporation/AU/NZ Tax, this is incredibly valuable to the team as they make the refinements.
We know this addition would help you keep a closer eye on your business's financial health. We appreciate your continued feedback on the prototype homepage and encourage you to leave more feedback for us.

The new homepage is full of poorly designed widgets - but I wanted to give you a specific example where the new design has gone wrong.
Compare the old VAT widget and the new VAT widget. At a glance the old VAT widget:
1. Clearly shows two separate submissions, due to the line that separates them.
2. The payment due (in 2 days) clearly stands out as being important due to that entry being in bold and the amount being right-aligned within the widget.
3. The title (and time status since last update) being in a different colour, clearly indicates it's ancillary information. (The title being blue also indicates that this is a clickable link to take me to the VAT section.)
Compare this to the new widget:
4. The major eye-drawing information is "91 days". This is no where near as important as the 2 day payment deadline. (NB: It might be important if there wasn't a more important deadline before the 91 days, or if the 91 days was actually under 30 days or something.)
5. It's not as clear that there are two submissions being reported; indeed the second listed submission is done in such a way to suggest it's sub-information of the top listed information
6. As a result of the stylistic changes, it's very easy to miss the 2 day deadline - the most important information that's being conveyed.
I raise this widget specifically as it's a good example of why the new dashboard widgets completely miss the mark in being as efficient as the old dashboard widgets, and provides insight into where many of the new homepage design errors exist.
With the old widget it's easy to scan the right-hand side of the widget and see that a payment is due, and the bold text and line separators assist in the instant recognition this is for the previous submission. Everything just "pops" from a simple eyeballing, no actual reading is needed.
With the new widget, nothing "pops" - you have to READ the widget to understand what needs to be done. The only thing that's popping is the 91 days, which is the least important information.
Most other widgets suffer from similar issues.
Can we please look to undertake another pass of ALL the widgets to improve their usability, and efficiency of information presentation.

Thanks for the input and sharing your feedback here, everyone.
We know many of you asked for widget borders to help separate information. As a first step, we’ve subtly darkened the homepage background to increase contrast and make the widget boundaries clearer.
We’d love to know if this change has made the information easier for you to scan and consume. Please do let us know here 🙏🏻

If you're able to apply custom CSS to the site, and know how to do this with browser extensions, you can use the following - I'm using this as a work-around to provide the widget borders until they get this fixed.
.dashboard-template-beta-widget--contents article { border: 1px solid #c0c0c0; }
NB: For anyone else using my previous CSS hacks, note that I've updated this to work better given the current version of Xero.

Perhaps useful for the technical minded and/or Xero devs...
I've added lines around the widgets myself. You can use add-ons for your browser (if you know technically what you're doing) to override the style for Xero itself.
If you know how to do this, and want to do this as a temporary work-around, you can use the following CSS - this will fix the number of columns to 3 no matter the screen size, and will add a border around the widgets.
.dashboard-template-beta-grid { grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr) !important; }
.dashboard-template-beta-widget { width: auto !important; height: auto !important; }
.dashboard-template-beta-widget--contents { height: auto !important; border: 1px solid #c0c0c0; }I've made a raft of style changes myself to the new homepage using browser add-ons to override Xero's own style - temporary workaround until they fix everything.

It's not important or critical for me personally, hence I've not voted, but I certainly +1 this suggestion... in this day an age, and given how easy switching CSS/styles are based on user preferences, there is absolutely no reason to not provide this in this day and age.
