Appearance & language

Personalize Ember to match your taste. Customize typography, style presets, accent colors, and sizes.

Configure the user interface language. Ember supports 23 languages natively.

Why Ember uses a fixed theme

Ember maintains its own visual styling independent of your device's system dark/light mode. This ensures that the warm cinematic design is preserved. You can customize the styling presets manually under Appearance settings.
