Use Light and Dark Mode
Choose System, Light or Dark for yourself, and decide whether your team and your clients may use dark mode at your business.
Beginner3 minWeb & app
Perceny comes in light and dark. Dark keeps the same layout, buttons and brand blue on deep navy, which is easier on the eyes at night or in a dim salon. Each person picks their own look, and the business decides whether dark mode is allowed for its team and for its clients.
Choose your appearanceCopy a link to this section
- Open your account menu: the avatar at the top right on the web, or the Profile tab in the app.
- Under App Preferences, find Appearance.
- Choose one:
- System follows your device or browser, and switches by itself when your device does (for example at sunset). This is the default.
- Light keeps Perceny light all the time.
- Dark keeps Perceny dark all the time.
The change applies at once. Your choice is saved with your account, so it follows you to every computer and phone you sign in on.
Turn dark mode on or off for your businessCopy a link to this section
Owners and managers decide where dark mode may show:
- Go to Business Settings → Information.
- Scroll to the Appearance card.
- Use the two switches:
- Dark mode on your public pages: your booking page, website, forms, gift card and membership pages, receipts and payment links, and your client app.
- Dark mode for your team: the dashboard and the staff app while working at this business, and the kiosk.
- Choose Save Changes in the bar at the bottom.
Both switches are on by default. When one is off, that part of Perceny is always light, whatever each person chose.
What your clients seeCopy a link to this section
- Clients see your public pages in dark when their device is set to dark, or when they chose Dark in the account menu of your booking page or in your app.
- Your pages keep your own colours: Perceny turns your background and cards dark and keeps your brand colour, brightened just enough to stay readable.
- If you already designed a dark theme for your website or booking page, it shows exactly as you made it, in light and dark.
- Someone who is not signed in gets the look their device prefers.
Good to knowCopy a link to this section
- Photos, logos and the pictures you upload are never changed.
- QR codes and signature pads stay white in dark mode, so they still scan and print.
- Receipts always print dark on white.
- Inside the staff app and your client app, the web pages they open follow the app's appearance.
