Memo offers both **Light** and **Dark** modes to suit your visual preference—and it even follows your device’s system theme by default. Here’s how to change it manually:

## Step-by-step

1.  Open Memo.

2.  Go to **Settings**.

3.  Open **Configuration**.

4.  In **General**, find **Theme**.

5.  Choose one of these options:

    - **Light**

    - **Dark**

    - **System**

## What each option means

- **Light**: Memo always uses the light theme.

- **Dark**: Memo always uses the dark theme.

- **System**: Memo follows your device or browser theme.

## Important notes

- Theme changes apply immediately.

- **System** is the safest option if you want Memo to match your device without changing settings again later.

- This settings-based flow is the current source of truth for theme selection.

## FAQ

### Does System mode change automatically when my device theme changes?

Yes. That is what System mode is for.

### Can I change the theme later?

Yes. You can switch between Light, Dark, and System at any time.
