FAQs
Does this impact my workflow or access to tools?
No—all functionality remains identical. Only the visual theme changes.
Will my theme choice be saved?
Yes—your selected theme will stay active across all sessions on the same browser.
Can students access Dark Mode as well?
Absolutely! Theme options are available to all users, including students and administrators.
Can our school establish a default theme for everyone?
Currently not—theme selection is controlled individually by each user.
Is dark mode supported in Canvas or Schoology?
No. Dark mode is unavailable in LTI environments (Canvas, Schoology, etc.) because these platforms only support light themes, and MagicSchool displays within their existing interface.
