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.
What is clear, is that the team behind this product did a great job, but still, the end user feels disrespected.As all businesses should have competitors and improve their products in their lifecycle:Check out here for Power Bi alternatives: https://alternativeto.net/software/power-bi-for-office-365/
RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.
Question for whomever the dev team assigns to read or skim through these comments: Why is there dark mode for the mobile apps and not desktop? Are you seriously expecting us to believe that most of the main userbase (higher ups who glance at the finished reports should not count as your main) do the bulk of the hours-or-days-long work on a tablet? Seriously, Microsoft has so much potential with this app but can't deliver a simple UI design that had already been implemented. Everyone knows that UI is just a layer, this should not be the huge ask it's being made to look like.
RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.
This doesn't pertain to an overall light/dark mode in Power BI, but still useful (to me) regardless. I had a coworker pose a question about focus mode on a report with white text on a dark background. They would enter focus mode and not be able to see white text on the (focus) white background. The workaround is to go to the view mode in the upper right and select one of the high-contrast colors option to fix the issue. You can get white text/black background, black text/white background, or 2 other contrasting color options.
RE: Option to use either light or dark interface.
I'm not sure why I bother checking this periodically, Microsoft clearly don't care about what their users want. All the top voted ideas, including this one have been on the backlog for over 3 years, and just have a vague "we'll get to it at some point" response. If anyone from MS does read this (hah!), please feed back to your team that you can just shut this site down, as it's clearly useless. Thanks
