Ancestry Colour Scheme

What problem does Ancestry Colour Scheme solve?

Many Ancestry users spend long hours researching their family trees, which can strain the eyes, particularly when working with bright, high-contrast interfaces. The Ancestry Colour Scheme feature provides a visually softer and more comfortable dark mode for the Ancestry website, making it easier on the eyes during extended research sessions.

How does Ancestry Colour Scheme work?

With Ancestry Colour Scheme, a high-contrast dark theme is applied to the Ancestry website, replacing the default bright whites with darker tones. This styling is applied consistently across all pages of the website, including the homepage, profile pages, and search results.

How do I use Ancestry Colour Scheme?
  • Ensure Ancestry Colour Scheme is enabled in the Genealogy Assistant pop-up panel.
  • Navigate to different parts of the Ancestry website to see the consistent application of the darker look across all pages.
Ancestry Colour Scheme is a feature of the software Genealogy Assistant.
