# Choose your Orbit interface
Source: https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/appearance/ · Updated 2026-11-15
**For Orbit Store 0.0.2 for PS4.** Orbit offers four interfaces: **Store**, **Crossbar**, **Cinema** and **Panorama**, in the TV app, the browser and [Orbit Zero](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/orbit-zero/). Each changes the layout and navigation while keeping your catalogue, favourites and download queue. Library, Files, Add-ons and saved filters are in all four.
## Switch interfaces
| Where you use Orbit | Open Appearance |
| --- | --- |
| TV app or browser using Store | **App settings → Appearance** |
| TV app or browser using Crossbar, Cinema or Panorama | **Settings → Appearance** |
| Orbit Zero using Store | The palette-shaped **Appearance** button in the top bar |
| Orbit Zero using Crossbar, Cinema or Panorama | **Settings → Appearance** |
Choose an interface, then select **Keep Store**, **Keep Crossbar**, **Keep Cinema** or **Keep Panorama** when **Keep this interface?** appears. You have **15 seconds** to confirm. **Switch back**, or letting the countdown finish, returns to your previous interface.
To go back to the default later, open Appearance, choose **Store** and confirm **Keep Store**. Switching doesn’t pause downloads or change their source or drive.
## Compare the layouts
| Interface | Layout |
| --- | --- |
| **Store (default)** | A familiar top navigation bar, featured artwork, game rows and grids. |
| **Crossbar** | Horizontal categories with vertical lists over a ribbon background. |
| **Cinema** | Large artwork, prominent titles and filmstrip-style game collections. |
| **Panorama** | Wide sections, bold headings and groups of tiles with a choice of accent colours. |

## Motion and backgrounds
Open **Appearance** while using the interface you want to adjust. The options depend on that interface.
| Interface | Options |
| --- | --- |
| All four | **Motion → Full** or **Reduced**. Reduced limits animated movement; it doesn’t change downloads. |
| Crossbar | **Ribbons → Follow the time of day**, **Dawn**, **Day**, **Dusk** or **Night**. Reduced motion keeps the ribbons still. |
| Cinema | **Art behind menus → Blurred game art** or **Plain black**. Reduced motion keeps the art still. |
| Panorama | **Accent colour → Blue**, **Magenta**, **Green** or **Orange**; **Art behind pages → Faint game art** or **Plain black**. |
In Cinema or Panorama, **Plain black** also removes the art behind menus or pages. Game covers and details still use the game’s artwork.
## Controller navigation in the TV app
Use the D-pad or left stick to move, **Cross** to select and **Circle** to go back. Follow the button hints on screen: shortcuts differ between interfaces.
| Interface | Navigation and favourites |
| --- | --- |
| Store | **L1/R1** switches tabs. In Browse and Discover, **Square** adds or removes the selected game from favourites. |
| Crossbar | At the main category bar, **Left/Right** changes category and **Up/Down** moves through its list. **L1/R1** also switches categories. **Triangle** toggles a selected game’s favourite. |
| Cinema | Move **Up** to the navigation bar, then use **Left/Right** to reach another section. **L1/R1** moves through the current chapter or collection before changing sections. **Triangle** toggles a selected game’s favourite. Use **Browse** for search. |
| Panorama | Move through tile groups with the D-pad; **L1/R1** moves through page groups or settings sections before changing the main section. **Triangle** toggles a selected game’s favourite. |
Dialogs and menus have their own controls. While **Keep this interface?** is open, choose whether to keep or switch back before moving around the page behind it.
## Find settings after switching
Open **App settings** in the default Store layout, or **Settings** in the other layouts. The category names stay the same: **Downloads**, **Storage & cleanup**, **Sources & accounts**, **Devices**, **Appearance**, **Notifications**, **Game catalogue**, **Updates & startup**, **Diagnostics & about** and **Support Orbit**. Orbit Zero has a **Settings** entry in every layout; the gear in Downloads opens its **Downloads** category directly. See [Settings](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/settings/), including which Zero settings affect the computer and which affect the PS4.
Every layout uses the same games and enabled sources. Browse has Genre, Tags and the other filters with matching game counts in every layout.
## Add-ons
**Add-ons** comes after Browse in every interface. It uses the layout’s own search and filter controls. Crossbar gives Add-ons its own icon; Panorama shows the tile caption when selected. Open **Add-ons (count)** from a game’s details to see extras for that game. See [the DLC guide](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/add-ons/).
## Language
Open **App settings → Appearance → Language** in the Store layout, or **Settings → Appearance → Language** in the others and in Orbit Zero. Zero’s Store layout also has the globe-shaped **Language** button in the top bar.
Orbit supports **26 languages**: English, Arabic, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.
Choose a language or follow the system or browser language. Arabic mirrors the layout and left-right navigation; English game names keep their reading direction. Numbers, dates and sizes follow the selected language. Game descriptions and provider pages may stay in their original language. The choice is saved separately for the TV app, each browser and Orbit Zero.
## Where your choice is saved
Confirming an interface saves it for that app or browser. The TV app, the PS4 browser, a paired phone and Orbit Zero can each use a different layout; they don’t share appearance choices.
In a browser, the choice belongs to that browser and address. Opening Orbit by a different IP address or hostname can start with Store again. Clearing site data or using a private window can also reset it.
If your choice switches back right away, select **Keep** before the countdown ends. Missing artwork is usually a network or image-host problem; changing interfaces doesn’t fix it. See [Troubleshooting](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/troubleshooting/#a-game-or-image-is-missing).
