How to Change Your Fireflies Display Language and Theme

Last updated: November 12, 2026

Want to make Fireflies feel more comfortable to use? You can personalize your experience by choosing your preferred display language and theme. Whether you prefer using Fireflies in your native language or switching between light and dark modes, you can customize both to suit your preferences.

Good to know: Your display language only changes the Fireflies interface. It doesn't change the language used to transcribe your meetings or generate summaries. Your meeting language is managed separately through Meeting Language settings.
