Workspace Themes & Dark Mode

Are new workspace themes and/or a dark mode option on the roadmap at all yet? It seems like there haven't been any new workspace themes released in years, and I feel like dark mode is a pretty standard option now. Even if there were no new predefined themes I would love to be able to just customize the colors myself. Thanks!

Hi @Kelly-Anne Slatton, thank you for sharing your feedback! I can see that you also supported this thread where the dark mode theme is suggested 👍 I'm passing on your feedback to the Product team now 😊

Hi! Dark mode is pretty much on all major services these days and is really such a help on the eyes. It's strange that this hasn't been added to Wrike considering that I saw many complaints about this from the community in 2019. This could be a make-it or break-it for many. Please consider adding in the near future

I believe the organization I work for has already moved away from wrike because of the lack of dark mode.

Same here, I am considering moving my team away from wrike as I see the dark mode feature in the request since 3 years. I would really love it if you can make it happen at the earliest.

We're just trialing different project management sofwares at the moment for our 200+ workforce buisness. Unfortunately, without a dark mode it's a wrike won't be a contender

Hi @Curt Pye, welcome to the Community! I'm sorry to hear you won't be able to use Wrike without the dark mode.

In case you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to let me know 🙂

I just started the trial period on Wrike. I can see now that you don't have the Dark Mode. The Dark Mode has been asked to be implemented for the last 3 years, and you seem to have ignored the users. It looks like Wrike a dead project to me. I am terminating my trial period because of that. Without the Dark Mode the software is useless.

Paul Kunad

Same here. Is it this hard to implement dark mode?

Cansu Yetisgin

Hi @Paul Kunad, welcome to the Community, and thank you for chiming in here. The team is aware of the feedback shared here, and we'll be sure to let you know if there are any updates👍🏼

Obviously, direct integration would be preferred, but for those that don't want to wait, I use the Dark Reader browser extension (available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge) and I must say, it's a game changer. I only have it enabled for Wrike and a couple of other sites that don't offer dark mode (Hello CNN?!) and it works like a charm. They also are very open and transparent that they don't collect any data or inject advertising (it's open source so you can check the code yourself). So I recommend giving it a try until Wrike decides to implement it directly.

Also, it doesn't affect attachments, so graphics and stuff are the same. Which also means that PDFs are not in dark mode, which can be a shocker when you first open one with a white background. haha

Patrick MacArthur

@Cody Rogers I use that extension as a workaround. Recently it started acting up on Wrike's site though. Checkboxes are hard to see and status text has had its color removed. I'm using Chrome.

The real issue is that Dark mode isn't natively available from Wrike yet. I don't understand how that's been put off for so long. Looking at the release notes every month there are plenty of aesthetic changes to the platform, but this isn't prioritized for some reason.

Adding my vote for the dark mode in Wrike. For those of us who work in Wrike several hours a day, every day, it is quite frustrating to see the Wrike Team coming up with unnecessary features, but not dark mode, which is pretty standard nowadays. It has been a request for the past 3+ years and we keep getting the same answer. We pay a lot of money, make it happen.

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Hi @Jessica Varlet, thank you for reaching out!

Although our team can't commit to working on all or even most of the suggestions in this forum, they are currently researching the possibility to work on the dark mode. We will keep you posted on how it goes 👍

Pierre Beck

Another vote for dark mode. Wrikey Dog but no dark mode yet ... 🙄

Jonathan Ots

+1 for dark mode, and maybe for voting buttons too

Cansu Yetisgin

Welcome to the Community and thank you for adding your support here @Jonathan Ots🙌🏼

Another vote for dark mode! Out of all of the productivity apps I use throughout my workday Wrike is the only tool that does not have a dark mode option.

Abdecharef KEHOUL

Hello, looking forward to dark mode !

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Thank you folks, this is now on our team's plans to release dark mode 🤗

Adrian Cabrero

Dark mode please. Just migrated from monday.com and thats the only thing I miss. This is the only app i currently use without dark mode!

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Hi @Adrian Cabrero, welcome to the Community 👋

As I mentioned previously, our team is planning to release dark mode this year. Thank you for sharing your feedback, we'll keep you posted on when this is available 🙂

Mark Hallinan

Having Dark Mode would be really helpful - it is a much better view on other programmes - and would make customer usability far better. I am hoping more messages may bump this up the development list.
