Yes!

Ben Misja (Logos)

Personally, I would recommend browser-wide solutions over a site-specific implementation. A browser extension can render all of your pages in dark mode. Try browser extensions like Midnight Lizard or Dark Reader. Both can be customized and even turn on automatically on a schedule or following system colors.

Now this would be interesting.

Never thought it possible, but I am sitting here at 2AM, not able to sleep, thought about getting some bible study in. Only to discover there still is no dark mode :-(

Would be highly appreciated!

Please implement a Dark Mode.

Yes!

Another vote for dark mode

Yes

I'm a Dark Mode Onlyist (It's my official denomination). A dark mode for the web app would be extremely beneficial for my study when I'm on a machine other than the one my install is on.

Fr. David Elias

I'm a web-app only user, and I think this would be a good added feature.

Benjamin Allen

yes please

unknown

Yes! Your team could do it in 15 minutes. It's simple CSS. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, with sugar. :-)

unknown

I NEED this because of eye issues from stroke.

unknown

yes

unknown

That would be great!

Koos de Lijster

Would be great. This would make it much more comfortable to use other programs in dark mode together with the Logos web app.

Very good idea

No brainer

Yes

Please, please add dark mode to the web app. My eyes need it.

unknown

So necessary is this feature on the web
Thx

unknown

Yes! I would rather use the web version than desktop because of my surface pro capabilities. Especially for getting devices that are lighter and smaller. Better to put the heavy lifting on ISP bandwidth instead of local machine.

@Ben Misja (Faithlife) Thanks! Midnight Lizard worked extremely well for me.

Vinjar Romsvik

This would be a great feature. All my other web-apps are responsive and follow system settings and go into dark mode if system setting is changed.

ExCult-Org

Yes

unknown

Yes please!

Keelan Cook

This should be a priority, for sure.

unknown

has this been done yet?

Nathan adams

Yes

unknown

Yes please!

Pastor Joshua Alvarez

I agree! I would definitely like this.

unknown

Yes, that would help with us who are visually impaired.

Mark VanOuse

DEFINITELY needed. I have an OLED screen, so dark mode saves much battery life! Hopefully, Logos will implement soon.

unknown

Please, oh please bring dark mode to the web browser, it is painful to do all this reading with a bright white background!

Istvan

Should not be that difficult to add and would make the web app a more viable choice for many. Especially needed for macOS Sonoma's new "Add to dock" feature as it does not support dark mode extensions.

Bill Gross

Yes, please, please, please!

Please.

yes please!

Please add dark mode

Is it possible to invert the colors on your content panels so that the resources appear with white text on a black background? I have low vision, and this really helps me when I do it on my Kindle app, but don't see a way to do it in the online Verbum one. I really upvote this option!!

unknown

Yes please. It'll be good on the eyes.

unknown

Dark mode should be the default for all software.

Jim Pearce

Absolutely. Please!!

@Ben Misja (Logos) Good idea, yes. However, Dark Reader makes the interface black, but the text areas for Bibles remains white, defeating the purpose of a dark mode. Is there a way to get Dark Reader to invert the text areas as well? Oh, I see now that in the Settings, Dark Reader allows a change to the mode. If you set the mode from Dynamic to Filter, it acts like it should on app.logos.com.

@jwj That's a good question, and I suspect that fiddling with the settings might help. I personally have moved from Dark Reader to Midnight Lizard after experiencing some issues with it, and it works pretty well, at least for casual usage.

unknown

Please consider! I'm a new user and I love the versatility of this app. It's unfortunate that the web app doesn't offer a dark theme, but I understand that it is more to maintain.

unknown

Reasons why this should be done:
- it should be low effort and low maintenance, basic CSS styling and a toggle to switch for the most part
- a browser extension does not touch the text screens, so not a practical solution; not a client-side fix
- requested for over 3 years, the feedback here just being top of the iceberg = high value
- based on product dev best practices, a low effort & high payoff feature should be high on the priority list
- low hanging fruits may be tempting but not necessarily sinful; this is a good thing , even if it's called 'dark mode'

unknown

Yes!

I have made a dark mode for the Logos Web App, while we wait for the official release. You will have to install the Stylus browser extension to apply my CSS changes. After installing Stylus for your browser, go to the link below and click install.

Ability to edit layouts universally
I use layouts extensively. I have at times wanted to add a specific book or Bible to all my layouts at once. It would be convenient to not have to open, edit, and then save every layout induvidually to accomplish this.
Editing needed
On the NLT version, Psalm 25: 10 reads: The Lord leads with unfailing love and faithfulness all who keep his covenant and obey his demands. The word "to" needs to be added between the words: "faithfulness" and "all". i.e. The Lord leads with unfailing love and faithfulness to all who keep his covenant and obey his demands.
