Use this interactive demo to learn how to switch Jira from dark mode to light mode in seconds.

Quick summary

Jira's dark mode can be disabled in just a few clicks by accessing Theme settings through your Profile icon. Switching to Light mode instantly updates the appearance across your entire Jira workspace.


Steps

  1. On Jira's main home page, navigate to the top-right corner and click your Profile icon.
  2. Click Theme from the profile menu to open theme options.
  3. Select Light from the list of available theme options.
  4. Your Jira space will now have dark mode turned off and display in light mode.

📌 Why this matters

Knowing how to turn off dark mode in Jira gives users full control over their workspace display preferences, reducing eye strain in bright environments and improving screen readability. Jira's built-in Theme setting makes it easy to switch between dark and light modes without any third-party tools or admin permissions. This is especially useful for teams sharing screens during presentations or working in well-lit offices where a light interface is more practical. Mastering Jira's display settings helps teams optimize their workflow environment for maximum productivity.
