Are you using a IPhone or iPad?  Are other screens dark too?

 

If you are using an Apple iPhone or iPad with iOS 13 you might be in Dark Mode.

my computer, phone and table are in dark mode intentionally as I have extreme eyesight problems. 

 

however turbo tax is not in dark mode and I would like it to be so. 

 

i can't even read the screens at full zoom in with this tiny type and white backgrounds. 

 

please help!

@bwarne Unfortunately, there is not an option for dark mode in TurboTax.

@wokanick Please take a look at some of the suggestions and responses throughout the thread - for example if you are on an iPhone or iPad, you will want to check to see if you are in dark mode and adjust accordingly.

Nothing to say thanks about here--can anyone tell the responders about the difference between "blank" and "black"?
