I'm so pleased to see the release of the Desktop App. Such a key feature, so well done.
It would be great to have dark mode included in the app.
Is there or could there be a dark mode? My eyes are killing me with the super bright white screen.
How Dark Mode is not being considered is beyond me. The brightness of an all white screen gives me headaches so I have everything set on dark mode. Surely it should be classed as an accessibility issue?!
I am here to be the millionth person requesting Dark Mode. It appears to be a aggressively common request that users have been asking for well before 2020. Per a different post requesting dark mode, they were directed to this post from 2023 to show support for this feature request. This is a universal accessibility feature and you're a global company, when can we expect Dark Mode?
Adding a +1 for this. I don't want it for the Desktop App, I want it for native web app.
I've always struggled with the lack of dark mode for years, but I have found a Chrome extension that actually works and doesn't cause the color formatting to go super wonky. I'm still in the early stages of using it (roughly 2 weeks at this point), but so far it seems very adaptable.

Still nothing I see. I love dark mode and it's what I use on everything system wise on my laptop.
I would also like to see a dark mode for the Windows desktop application, the white background is far too bright. Even a gray background would be better than white. The browser version allows for dark mode, so why would the app not allow for this too?
I am adding my voice to the request for dark mode in Smartsheet. I use Smartsheet in most of my work and dark mode would help reduce the number of headaches. Please consider and prioritize this accommodation!
As many others have already said, this is such a common feature request from customers going back at least 5 years, yet still nothing? I suppose if people are still paying for the service without a dark mode option, then there's a case to be made for not doing it until the customers are fed up enough that they start leaving, but come on.
Since it looks like Darksheet isn't being actively developed anymore, we've created a Chrome extension specifically for Smartsheet. It's free.

Hi @Sam_Harwart,
Great idea, and thanks for sharing!
I only wish I could use it. My company blocks us from doing so due to potential security risks. Doh!
BRgds, -Ray
Totally get it. We generally stay away from building Chrome extensions for that exact reason but wanted to offer it to those who are able to use it!
Did Smartsheet not implement a dark mode yet? my eyes hurt sooo much without it… what a bummer and def something to consider for our company when renewal is up…
We cannot rely on browser extensions due to IT security restrictions, and our users operate across multiple browsers. Additionally, not all users have access to or use the desktop app, so there is currently no consistent workaround.
We have team members with severe light sensitivity and migraines, and the lack of a dark mode significantly limits their ability to use Smartsheet for extended periods, directly impacting productivity.
At a minimum, it would be extremely helpful if dark mode were implemented in at least one primary access platform (web or desktop), or if Smartsheet could respect system/OS-level display settings to provide a consistent baseline experience.
Given both the accessibility impact and the sustained demand from the community, it would be helpful to understand whether this is being considered for the roadmap. This appears to be a long-standing and widely requested feature, with many related threads merged into this idea over time.
