  • Cross-Platform Consistency: A unified design language that matches the Xodo web experience.

Reverting to the Classic View

If you prefer the previous interface, you can return to it at any time.

  2. Click the toggle to switch back to the classic version of Xodo.

  3. The application will revert to the original layout immediately or upon the next restart.
