Themes for AVG Secure Browser ??

I somehow got this new version of Google Chrome, AVG Secure Browser and it doesn't allow me to install web themes from the Chrome Web Store. Any help would be appreciated.

Noah, we got an update from senior team.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to download themes from "Chrome Web Store".

It`s almost a year since this question was asked, and it appears that it is still not possible to add Themes to the browser.

Unlikely that I`ll be using this browser at the whole appearance is very bland. Also plain white on the PC has an effect on my vision after time.

Hi Glynn,

We are sorry to inform you that it is not possible to add themes to the browser.

However, we will forward your feedback to our developers team.

Thank you for understanding.

Or perhaps change the browser color to something darker? Like gray? anything is better than a full white screen.

Hi Sasha,

Thank you for writing in this post.

I would like to inform you that AVG Secure Browser does not have the option to change the theme.

If you have any queries regarding AVG programs or subscriptions, you can create a new post/query for further assistance.

You know, it's a bit dissappointing to see that this question is from so long ago and still there's no option to get a darker style.

For health reasons, you should care about this a bit more, if possible.

I mean no disrespect, of course.

Andrés, we are duly recording all the feedback shared on this thread and providing to our developers.
I'm afraid we do not have any update from them yet regarding adding themes.

Same here I love this browser I think it's the most complete ever, but after a while I turned back to Edge cause with the white theme it's absolutely unacceptable for me having all my windows black themed and rain meter modded.

Right click on taskbar, taskbar settings, colors. Change the color there to dark, chose an accent color (that will affect the top with the tabs) and AVG browser will be dark.

However if you wish to have AVG Secure Browser completely dark including the screen, you can also download/intall an extenision from Google Chrome store. Look for "Dark Mode", choose which ever suits you best, bear in mind these are not supported on AVG Secure so you will get a pop up asking to continue, click yes, once added follow the steps for said extenision to suit your needs. 
These Dark Modes do darken every page, so some alterations may be requied within the settings of the Dark Mode you choose. - I added "Super Dark Mode" of which I can white list certain websites to be not be darkened, of which can be undone. 

This is a stop gap till AVG Secure Browser gets their own dark mode added naturally.
