   If you prefer Notion to follow your device’s system theme, select “Use system setting.” Notion will automatically switch between light and dark modes based on your OS settings.

Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them

1. Can't Find the Appearance Option
   Make sure you’re looking under the correct settings menu—on desktop or web, it's under “Settings & Members”; on mobile, it’s under the main settings tab.

2. Dark Mode Not Applying
   If the appearance doesn’t change after selection, try restarting the app or refreshing the browser tab.

3. Dark Mode Only Applies to One Device
   Notion appearance settings are device-specific. You’ll need to enable dark mode separately on mobile and desktop if you use both.

4. Assuming It's Synced With Browser Theme
   Notion doesn’t automatically adjust based on browser dark mode. You must set the theme inside Notion’s own settings or select “Use system setting.”

5. Difficulty Reading in Dark Mode
   Some users find text less legible in dark mode depending on their display. Try adjusting your device’s brightness or use “light mode” temporarily when working on long documents.
