# Create a theme for your mobile applications

Use mobile themes to give your applications a unique appearance that works with your company identity.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

**Important:** Use legacy mobile theming on Tokyo and earlier ServiceNow® instances. For Utah and later releases, see [Next Experience theming for mobile](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/mobile/explore-ne-theming.md).

**Note:** Certain elements, such as banner text color, are not configurable with legacy theming and require Next Experience theming. For details, see [Next Experience theming for mobile](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/mobile/explore-ne-theming.md).

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to [Create a theme with Theme Builder](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/platform-user-interface/tb-create-theme.md).

    Follow the instructions to create your theme.

2.  Navigate to [Publish your themes with Theme Builder](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/platform-user-interface/tb-apply-theme.md).

    Follow the instructions to publish your theme.


## What to do next

After you configure a mobile theme, you can apply the mobile theme to your mobile apps. For details, see [Assign a theme to your mobile application](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/mobile/assign-theme-to-mobile-app.md).
