Appearance

May change before release

The appearance options (design styles, color palettes and so on) are being redesigned, so the options and their names may differ at release.

• Appearance Mode — Light, Dark, or Auto to follow your macOS appearance.
• Font Size — three sizes (small, standard and large) applied to all articles. You can also adjust it while reading with ⌘+ / ⌘− / ⌘0 or the "Aa" button in the toolbar; see Home and Reading Articles.
• Design style and color palette — switch between different layout styles and color palettes. The style you choose applies to every screen.

No ad settings

The macOS version doesn't show ads, so there are no ad-related options in Settings.
