# Dark Mode

We're excited to introduce Dark Mode for MediaLab! This feature allows you to customize your user interface (UI) experience to suit your preferences and working environment.

Dark Mode offers a sleek, low-light interface that reduces eye strain, enhances readability in dimly lit settings, and provides a modern aesthetic. Whether you're managing media assets late into the evening or simply prefer a darker theme, this option empowers you to tailor MediaLab to your needs.

### How does it work?

To enable Dark Mode, open the menu on the top right by hovering over your profile picture. Using the theme switch, you can choose Light, Dark or Automatic. Automatic means MediaLab will have the same theme as your operating system.
