Control: tags -1 +moreinfo Hey,
kdeconnect does not shipping an own theme, but there are Desktop environments (DE) that do not set the Qt theme. The result is kdeconnect use a fallback theme. In order to configure the qt theme you need qt5ct/qt6ct or e.g. adwaita-qt/ adwaita-qt6, so qt apps using the default Gnome theme. See the links for help. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ Qt#Configuration_of_Qt_5/6_applications_under_environments_other_than_KDE_Plasma https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ Uniform_look_for_Qt_and_GTK_applications#Themes_originally_GTK_based_for_Qt_programs IMO it is nothing kdeconnect can do to improve the situation, it is more the DE that needs to fix that. Regards, hefee PS: I use Plasma Desktop with a white on black theme and kdeconnect follows this theme. On Mittwoch, 2.
