New Desktop app update installed an almost white user interface. There is zero contrast which is not good for the eyes. I see where some people have requested a light interface so incorporate an option to select either light or dark theme like in the Office apps.

This request is on our roadmap, but we don't have timelines to share yet. We'll update this idea when there are more details to share. Thank you!

RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.

It's beyond me why you would implement a white theme WITHOUT still providing the option of keeping the dark theme if you wish. I mean, dark theme is all the rage now, heck, even Apple is going dark for the iPhone. Power BI is doing exactly the reverse. I cannot understand how Product Owner/Manager sometimes make decisions...

Dark please. Easier to read, looks more professional.

Please give the user the option to use either the dark or light mode. The light mode is harsh on the eyes.

Nowadays is very common and useful to have the option to dark mode in any modern app.

Please bring the dark UI back. Or at least provide an option to switch between the light and dark UI. The light US hurts my eyes and makes it difficult to work in the program for long periods of time.

I don't know who in their right mind thought making the entire interface white was an even REMOTELY intelligent idea but they should be fired. Period. End of story.
