# Change Stream Color
Zulip allows you to change stream colors to better customize an environment
that best suits you.
# Change the color of a stream
### Using the streams sidebar
The streams sidebar is the fastest approach to changing the color of a stream, to use this:
You can optimize your Zulip environment by changing your streams' colors.
1. Hover your cursor over the stream you would like to edit, then click the **down chevron**(![Down chevron](/static/images/help/chevron.png)) that will appear to the right of the stream name.
2. From the pop-up menu select your desired stream color from the preset colors or open the color picker by clicking **Choose custom color**.
## Change the color of a stream through the left sidebar

If you want to quickly change the color of a single stream, you can do so
through the left sidebar.
You can also edit the color of a Stream from the **Subscriptions page**.
{!stream-actions.md!}
2. Click on the {!down-chevron.md!}
3. Select the **Choose custom color** option from the actions dropdown.
4. The stream will change colors in the left sidebar, confirming the success of
the stream's color change.
## Change the color of a stream through the Subscriptions page
If you want to change the colors of multiple streams at once or specify a hex
code for your stream's color, you should change the stream's colors through the
[Subscriptions](/#subscriptions) page.
### Finding the subscriptions page
{!subscriptions.md!}
{!filter-streams.md!}
### Change color
Once on the **subscriptions page**:
2. Select the stream you want to change the color of in the [Subscriptions](/#subscriptions) page;
{!stream-settings.md!}
1. Select the stream you want to edit by either searching for its name or finding it in the streams list.
2. Under the **Stream Settings** section, select the **Stream Color** option.
3. From the window select either a preset color, use the color picker, or enter the hex code of your desired color.
2. Under the **Stream Settings** section, select the **Stream color** option.

3. In the tooltip that appears after selecting the **Stream color** option,
select a color from the color palette.
Congratulations, you're finished! You can now exit the **subscriptions page** by clicking the "**X**" in the top right corner of the modal.
