Request for Dark Mode for the Website and the Desktop (including Paper)

Request for Dark Mode for the Website and the Desktop (including Paper)

I nearly go blind every time I open dropbox, how can you guys have been around so long yet you still don't have a simple toggle to change the CSS style to a darker color to not blind your users?

Seriously. Can we please get a night mode?

We are closing this idea so that we can provide the Community with updates on Dark Mode by individual product. We hope this provides a better user experience as this thread has grown quite long. Thanks for all of your votes, comments and enthusiasm!

 

You can find more information at the end of this thread, or by clicking this link.

How is this not a thing after 2.5 years? The mobile version has a dark mode, but not desktop? C'mon already!

While new features are added occasionally, it does seem that some reasonable and long standing requests just languish. It is very frustrating.

How is dark mode for the web app not a thing yet? It's 2021 for crying out loud!

Dark mode should be implemented to web app, and desktop. I also would like to see a dark mode option for the menu bar app of dropbox in Mac. By the way, dark mode implementation will be appreciated for the paper as well.

How can a tech company like Dropbox not be able to implement Dark mode for the web? The menu bar app for Mac doesn't even follow the OS theme of dark mode. People have been asking for three years and yet they are probably focused on some other garbage feature nobody asked for and nobody wants. Thanks for listening Dropbox!

Dropbox is consistently the most blinding website I routinely visit. It is so bad I don't visit the page at night when I'm working, I will wait until daytime to upload files.  A dark theme would really make some core users happy.  
Besides all that, its 2021, let's keep up.

Please and Thank you.

Dropbox was my favorite cloud storage, its not anymore,

 

I do like the darkmode they have on many devices,  but the cut in size over the years has gotten them out of the game. A simple phone backup is larger than the free storage.

 

I still use it, but for stuff I dont mind losing, since that is another problem I've had with Dropbox, not to mention my inability to post on this forum, im not even sure this will make it up public

Dark mode is available on Mac Beta app but not on iPhone and iPad. By the way Mac app is still in BETA. Last but not least; there is still no DARK MODE for Dropbox Mac apps in both menu bar dropdown and the desktop app. There is thousands of entries in the forum since forever. Apparently, in this specific case; Dropbox does not care what its users really would like to see.
