Since February 2004, when Facebook was founded, it has gone through many changes in design and interface department. They introduced many new features but always stuck with the same color for their page i.e. Blue. The color of Facebook has been the same throughout since it was launched. Actually, there is a proper reason behind Facebook’s blue color and why they are not changing it. However, it’s a very easy job to change the whole theme and background color of Facebook to a different one. You can do it on your PC browser, doesn’t matter if it is Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. You can even change the Facebook theme and color on your Android device by using a few extensions and add-ons that are available for free.

First, we are going to mention a few methods by which you can change the theme of your Facebook account on the website. The basic requirement for these methods to work on your computer is to have a working Chrome or Mozilla browser.

1. Google Chrome

In Google Chrome, the color is changed by using Chrome extensions that you can install from the Chrome web store. It allows you to change the default blue color to any color of your choice. There are actually two different extensions on Chrome that will do the same things but have different varieties of colors. If you are not satisfied with the first extension you can always go for the second one. Below we have mentioned methods to find, install and use both the extensions on your Google Chrome.

  • Directly go to Chrome Web Store or open a new tab in chrome, click on Apps icon on the top left side and then select Web Store in order to launch Web Store to install the extension.
