Trying to personalize your workspace, but theChrome themeyou picked doesn’t fit the screen? You wouldn’t be the first. This is most likely because the theme wasn’t built correctly to begin with.
Below, we’ll walk you through a few adjustments you can make so your design of choice will look better on your device. Let’s get started.
How do I make my Google Chrome theme fit my screen?
1. Customize Chrome background
Sometimes, your Google Chrome themes do not fit or appear too small or big due to your background. This is especially common when you upload a background from your device, as it can have a contradicting size to your theme.
In some cases, it can cause the Chrome theme background not to show in a new tab. The easy fix here is to switch to the default background and relaunch your browser.

Google Chrome themes might not be fitting on screen due to some settings on your browser. If you find it hard to pinpoint the cause, this fix should help you restore all settings to their default.
After the restoration, you can now apply the theme you want to use.
3. Disable hardware acceleration
4. Try another browser
If you keep having trouble with Chrome, try using Opera instead. It’s a top-notch browser with an intuitive and fully customizable interface. It has a light/dark mode but an addition of a system mode for more options.
Aside from choosing a theme color, you can also add any wallpaper from your PC or the Opera addons store. It gives you so much control of your customization without the errors from other browsers.
