Issue Description
I was trying to
Set a custom theme on one client device
When
I accessed the application from other client devices using the same account
Expected behavior:
The custom theme configuration should sync automatically and be applied across all client devices.
Actual behavior:
The custom theme set on one device is not reflected on other client devices.
Error message:
None (no error message displayed)
How can we reproduce the issue?
Steps to Reproduce
Log in to the application using a valid account on Client Device A (mobile, iPad, or web).
Navigate to Settings → Theme
Apply a custom theme and save the changes.
Log in to the same account on Client Device B.
Navigate to the application interface - you can see custom theme is not set

Themes are set per-device and are not synced.
