SoundLeaf has 34 themes, seven font styles, seven text sizes and 55 app icons. They all live in **Settings** > **Appearance**, under Visual Preferences.

Six themes, three app icons, every font style and every text size are free. Pro and Supporter unlock the rest (see [Free, Pro and Supporter](https://soundleafapp.com/docs/pro-and-supporter/)).

## How many themes are there?

34, in three groups on the **Theme** screen:

| Group | Count | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| **Free Themes** | 6 | Light, Dark, Sunset, Ivory, Nordic, Midnight |
| **Pro Themes** | 20 | Paper, Ocean, Forest, Espresso, Neon, the four Catppuccin themes |
| **Supporter Themes** | 8 | Gold, Burgundy, Orchid, Evergreen, Ember, Lagoon, Moss, Parchment |

A locked theme shows a lock. Tap it and SoundLeaf opens the Premium screen. Supporter includes every Pro theme as well.

## Can I use one theme in light mode and another in dark mode?

Yes.

1. Open **Settings** > **Appearance** > **Theme**.
2. Turn on **Match iPhone appearance** (on iPad it says iPad, on a Mac it says Mac).
3. Choose **Light mode** and pick a theme, then choose **Dark mode** and pick another.

SoundLeaf then switches theme when your iPhone switches between light and dark. Each mode only lists themes made for it, so a dark theme won't show up in the light mode list.

Turn the switch off to use one theme all the time.

## How do I change the app's font?

**Settings** > **Appearance** > **Typography** has seven font styles:

| Style | What it looks like |
|---|---|
| Original | The familiar SoundLeaf lettering |
| Bookish | Literary titles with simple, clear text |
| Storybook | Plump, playful lettering from a storybook |
| Notebook | Handwritten, like notes in a book's margins |
| Typewriter | Clean, inked lettering with a typewriter feel |
| Cozy | Soft, rounded letters |
| Clear | Distinct letter shapes, simple and open |

These change the lettering across the app. The font inside an ebook is separate: set it in the reader, or in **Settings** > **Reading & listening**. See the [ebook reader](https://soundleafapp.com/docs/ebook-reader/).

## How do I make the text bigger?

**Text Size** on the Appearance screen goes from Tiny to Huge, seven steps, with Medium in the middle. Tap minus or plus to change it.

It changes the app's text, not a book's. The ebook reader has its own size control.

## What is Card Display Style?

**Card Display Style** sets how book and show covers are drawn: **Classic** or **Modern**. Try both and keep the one you like.

## How do I change the app icon?

1. Open **Settings** > **Appearance** > **App Icon**.
2. Tap an unlocked icon. iOS shows a short message saying the icon changed. A locked icon opens the Premium screen instead.

There are 55 icons:

| Tier | Count | Icons or groups |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 3 | Classic, Midnight, Warm |
| Pro | 19 | Materials, Colors, Library |
| Supporter | 33 | Botanical, Precious, Artisan, Nocturne |

Supporter unlocks the Pro icons too.

## What else is on the Appearance screen?

The Home settings: the listening stats style for each library, and reordering or hiding Home sections. See [browsing your library](https://soundleafapp.com/docs/library-browsing/).

Interface options:

- **Show Section Icons** puts an icon beside each shelf name on the Home screens.
- **Shrink Tab Bar on Scroll** turns the tab bar into a button as you scroll down. It's there on iOS 26 or later.
- **Draw Missing Covers** makes a cover from the title when your server has no artwork.
- **In Progress Row** and **Finished Row** set where those shortcuts appear.
