How do I change dark mode and appearance settings?

You can easily change the appearance settings in BusyCal and BusyContacts to match your preference or system settings.

How to Change Appearance Settings

Go to View > Appearance in the menu bar and choose from these options:

  • Dark Mode - Uses dark colors with white text
  • Light Mode - Uses light colors with dark text
  • Automatic - Follows your macOS system appearance settings

Automatic Mode

When set to Automatic, the app will:

  • Switch to light mode (white background) during the day
  • Switch to dark mode (dark background) at night
  • Follow your macOS system appearance preferences
  • Change automatically when you adjust your system settings

The appearance setting applies to both the main interface and all windows in BusyCal and BusyContacts.
