Theme Options Explained
| Theme | Description | Best For |
| Light Theme | White background with dark text (Innoslate’s default) | Bright environments, traditional look |
| Dark Theme | Black background with light text | Low-light settings, reduced eye strain |
| Browser Theme | Matches Innoslate to your set light/dark mode per your browser's or operating system's settings | Users who already switch modes system-wide |
How to Configure Your Settings for Browser Theme
Only relevant if you choose 'Browser Theme' in Innoslate.
In Innoslate, selecting Browser Theme (as opposed to Innoslate's custom "Light" or "Dark" themes) allows the application to dynamically adapt its appearance—such as colors, contrast, and UI elements like buttons, menus, sidebars, and scrollbars—to your browser's native theme and OS-level preferences (e.g., light/dark mode, accent colors). This provides a seamless, system-integrated look but relies on proper browser configuration for optimal results in Innoslate.
Why Configure Browser/OS Settings for Browser Theme?
Configuring your browser and OS settings when using Innoslate's Browser Theme option ensures optimal visual consistency and comfort. Key benefits include:
- Seamless alignment with your preferred light or dark mode, reducing eye strain during extended work sessions.
- Automatic adaptation to your system's light/dark mode schedule—such as switching to dark mode in the evening and light mode during the day—providing a more natural and ergonomic experience without manual intervention.
Quick Steps Before Starting:
Update your browser to the latest version (Chrome 132+, Edge 132+, Firefox 133+, Safari 18+ as of Dec 2025).
Align OS theme:
- Windows (Settings → Personalization → Colors → Light/Dark);
- macOS (System Settings → Appearance → Light/Dark/Auto).
In Innoslate, confirm Browser Theme is selected and hard-refresh your browser (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+R).

Troubleshooting & Best Practices for Browser Theme in Innoslate:
Cross-Browser Testing: Chrome/Edge (Chromium) most consistent for Innoslate's CSS; Firefox excels in custom colors; Safari for macOS parity.
OS Sync: Enable "System Default" everywhere—Innoslate detects color scheme for auto-adaptation (e.g., dark mode during evening Roll-Up reviews, or light mode during the day).
Things aren't looking right? Revert Changes in browser and clear cache if Innoslate lags.
