Change how your app looks

What you need first

A working preview, and some idea of what bothers you about it.

• Your app open with a preview showing.
• One sentence about what is wrong — “too cold”, “photos too small”, “hard to read”.
• Your brand colour or logo if you have one.

01 · Ask for it in writing

The bluntest way. “Make the whole thing warmer and rounder.” “Use dark backgrounds.” This is an AI run, so it costs credits — small touch-ups are T3 at 0.5 credits, larger reworks cost more and tell you first.

02 · Or click it on the screen

Turn on visual editing and click straight into the preview. Three things can be changed this way, and they cost no credits at all.

• Text — headings, buttons, any wording
• Shape and colour — the styling on a mapped element
• Pictures — swap one image for another

03 · Or open the code

Developer mode opens a code editor with the real files in it. The same safety rules that apply to the AI apply to you. Editing costs nothing, and every save leaves a restore point behind.

04 · Change the whole direction at once

If the problem is the overall feel rather than one section, ask for a different direction by name — warm editorial, bold studio, quiet precision, deep focus, garden light, archive press. Each one changes colour, type and layout together.

05 · Check it on a phone

Most visitors arrive on a phone. Narrow the preview or open it on your own phone. Look for text running off the side and for anything too small to tap.

If you get stuck

I clicked something and nothing happened. Visual editing works on mapped static elements. Parts that are drawn from your data, or that appear only under certain conditions, have to be changed by asking or in the code.

I made it worse. Go back to a restore point. Restoring does not spend credits, and the state you were in before the restore is saved too — so you can undo the undo.

The colours look fine to me but people say they cannot read it. Ask for stronger contrast between the text and its background. Light grey on white is the usual culprit, and it looks fine on a bright screen and disappears outdoors.
