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!

Hi there @bennyw
 
Could you please clarify what you’re referring to? Is it the website, the desktop app, or the mobile app?
 
Any additional info so as to have a better understanding of your feedback would be very helpful. 
 
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Lusil.  I'm talking about the Desktop app, and the iOS apps. The white background is too bright for viewing in a dark room.

The smart invert feature works well on my iphone and ipad, so that help me a bit.

Youtube even has a dark theme.

Dunno what category to put this in but i saw feedback, any chance of a darkmode for the app and the web, it would look nice and easy on the eyes

Also for the dark mode. Windows and macOS support dark mode, now Android and iOS are adding it in the coming releases. I think it's time for the dark web now

Please, please give us a dark mode in the apps that will also sync with iOS’ dark mode setting. When I have a migraine (like right now) I can use dark mode websites to get some work done, but Dropbox is painful to look at. A sepia mode would also be great.

Yes please, we need dark mode. It's not a fashion, it's needed for people with visual problems!
