Yes. Set Appearance to System, Light, or Dark in Settings → Preferences; the theme applies across the dashboard, editor, and settings.
Turn on dark mode
-
Click your workspace name in the top left of the sidebar and select Settings.
-
Go to Preferences.
-
Under General → Appearance, pick one of the options:
- System: matches your operating system’s light/dark setting and updates automatically when you change it. This is the default.
- Light: always uses the light theme.
- Dark: always uses the dark theme.
The change applies instantly across every page.
Use the command menu
You can also change your appearance without opening Settings:
- Press Cmd+K (macOS) or Ctrl+K (Windows) to open the command menu.
- Search for
dark, light, theme, or appearance.
- Select Switch to dark mode or Switch to light mode.
To go back to following your operating system, search for system and select Use system appearance. That action only appears while Light or Dark is selected.
Where does dark mode apply?
The Appearance setting controls the look of your Tella account everywhere you sign in: the dashboard, editor, settings, and recorder. It does not change how your shared video pages look to viewers. Those follow your workspace branding instead.
Does dark mode sync across devices?
Your Appearance preference is saved to your account, so it syncs across every device you sign in on. If you set Dark on your laptop, you’ll get Dark on your desktop too. Last modified on September 28, 2026
