How to switch between light and dark mode in Dumpster Controls

One click in the header flips the whole app, including the live maps, between light and dark themes.

1. Find the toggle

   In the header icon row, click the moon icon to switch to dark mode, or the sun icon to switch back to light (tooltip: "Toggle dark mode").

2. Check the maps

   The Dashboard's "Active Locations" map and the other in-app maps restyle themselves automatically to match the theme.

What happens next

• The choice is remembered on that device, so the app opens in your preferred theme next time.

Troubleshooting

The theme reset on another computer.

The theme is stored per device in the browser, not on your account. Set it once on each device you use.
