summary: Giving one streamline its own look, from its Theme card or the Library, and who can change it

Each streamline can wear a theme of its own, changed from its **Theme** card.

## Opening it

- **On the Mac and iPad,** the palette in a streamline card's header opens its **Theme** card beside it.
- **On the iPhone,** choose **Theme** from the streamline's menu in the list (touch and hold its row), or from a chat's **•••**.
- **In the Library,** the editor's **Theme** row opens the same choices as a sheet.

Only people who may change the streamline see it: you, for your own streamlines on this device, and an organization's owners and admins. Members never see the palette. The Concierge has no theme: it wears the app's.

## The choices

- **Follow the account**: the account's theme with the streamline's own color.
- **Own color**: an accent for light and dark, and optionally the theme it starts from.
- Or one of the shared themes, each shown with its light and dark sides.

## Who it changes for

- **On this device,** your pick is saved to the streamline at once, the same as its editor's **Theme** row.
- **In an organization,** a streamline's theme is part of the organization's signed setup. A pick is staged in the Library (*Staged: … It shows once published*), and nothing changes for anyone until the organization publishes it. See The Library (LIB-1).

## What to watch for

- The Theme card wears the app's theme, not the streamline's, so it does not change color while you pick.
- On the Mac, the palette sits before the card's close and window buttons, so those stay where you expect them.
