The custom color theme puts your brand color across Trackdesk, on your own dashboard and the pages your affiliates see. Pick one of twenty presets or enter your own color, and the change applies to every user in your account.

To add your logo and favicon, see Upload Your Logo and Favicon.

​

Navigate to Settings → General → Branding. The color theme options are right below the default theme (light mode, dark mode, system).

​

You can choose from twenty pre-configured color combinations, or enter your own brand color as a hex code (for example #0075FF) in Custom color or pick it with the color picker next to the field. While you can only see the primary color in the settings, various complementary shades of the selected colors are applied across the entire UI of both your dashboard and the dashboard of your affiliates.

Apply to Background: Toggling this option applies a gradient based on the selected theme to the application's main navigation (sidebar and topbar).

Surprise me ✨: Not sure which color to pick? Click Surprise me to apply a random combination as a starting point.

Reset: Switches back to the default blue color and turns off Apply to Background.

Once you make a change, you will see a preview of the color throughout the page. Click Save changes to apply it for everyone, or Cancel to revert it.

​

Trackdesk checks the contrast of your color and tells you when it may be hard to read. A very light color shows: This color is too light for white text and links, so the app adjusts them to stay readable. A very dark color shows: This color is too dark for dark mode, so dark mode shows links and icons in a lighter shade of it. In both cases the fill keeps the exact color you picked, and only the text, icons and links on top of it are shifted. An invalid value shows: Enter a color in the #RRGGBB format. Save changes stays blocked until you correct the value or pick a swatch.

​

The custom color theme is a system-wide setting. Once changed, it applies to every user in your account, including:

This is separate from per-user theme settings, where individual users can choose their own light/dark mode and platform scale. Per-user preferences override the system theme only for that individual user, where applicable.
