Light and dark
The phone app starts light and the web app starts dark. Change it, or follow your device.
Choosing
- Open Settings. Under App Settings, find Appearance.
- Choose one:
- Same as phone (Same as device in the web app): the app is dark when your phone or computer is set to dark, and light when it is light.
- Light: always light. This is how the phone app starts.
- Dark: always dark. This is how the web app starts.
There is one set of colours for light and one for dark.
Under App Settings too, Background pattern puts doodles behind the app. Switch it off for a plain background. It is on to begin with, and it is kept on each device.
On the phone, the map has its own light and dark button, on the left of the map.
In the web app, the first choice is called Same as device.
