How do I change backgrounds in Microsoft Planner?

I've tried changing the background in Planner, but I don't seem to have any access to that. I see "plan settings" and after I click that, it takes me to "general" where I have no options for background changes, just a white screen. The tutorials that I watch all show different backgrounds that auto populate in the general field. I'm not sure how/where to edit mine if I even have the ability to.

    I've returned to work today having been on sick leave for 8 weeks and can no longer see what tasks and buckets I have. There's no visual hierarchy at all! It's an absolute mess and my head cannot compute the difference between bucket headings, task headings and other text.

    What have they done this for? Who is this helping?!

    Microsoft - please can you let us know when a further update will happen please? This UI design is AWFUL.

    There is a complaint on the Planner Feedback Portal on this very topic. Please head on over there and upvote and input your comments so that it gains more attention from the product team to address it.

    Us too, this is hurting our eyes and is a migraine inducer. Please give us the facility to make our tasks grey and/or the background another colour, other than white, Thanks!
