This answer is a step-by-step guide on how to enable/disable the Chroma Workshop apps.

Effective February 3, 2026, Razer Synapse 3 will no longer receive updates or support cloud services. After this date, cloud syncing of configurations across PCs using the same Razer ID will be disabled.

Note: Your installed devices will continue to be configurable in Razer Synapse 3. However, if you uninstall these devices completely, you will need to upgrade to Razer Synapse 4 to continue customization.

Download Razer Synapse 4 and migrate your existing Razer Synapse 3 profiles using the Profile Migration Tool to retain access to your configurations. See How to migrate your Razer Synapse 3 Profile to Razer Synapse 4 for instructions.

Razer Chroma-enabled devices allow integration with games and applications for a truly immersive lighting experience. Custom Chroma lighting effects will start once you launch the game or application.

For Chroma Workshop Apps

The Chroma SDK also helps you develop standalone apps to take over the lighting of your Chroma devices. Play Snake on your keyboard or enjoy your Music Visualizer in its full Chroma Glory today. Visit Razer Chroma Workshop Apps for the list of apps available for download.
