Themes and backup

Make Chatge look the way you like, share your look with a code, and carry all your settings to another device.

Changing the look

Under Settings → Appearance you can set:

  • light or dark, an accent colour, and a theme tint that colours backgrounds and text with the accent’s hue
  • font size, message spacing and the overall UI scale
  • a background image, with its size and opacity

Each channel can also have its own style from its channel style popover. The Default preset puts a channel back on the global look.

Sharing a theme

  1. Open Settings → Appearance → Theme library.
  2. Under Share theme, choose Copy code. The code holds your colours, text, layout and background.
  3. Whoever receives it pastes the code under Import theme and chooses Apply.

A background image from your own computer isn’t included in the code.

Backing up settings

Settings → General → Backup & restore → Download backup saves your settings, highlights, filters, commands, hotkeys, channel styles and layout to a file. Sign-ins and your GIF token are left out.

To restore, choose the file under Restore from backup. Matching settings on that device are replaced and Chatge reloads.

Moving settings into the extension

The browser extension keeps its own settings, separate from the web app’s. Download a backup in the web app and restore it in the extension’s settings to bring everything over.
