Color Management (set color profiles)
XD should be a color managed application.
I'm not sure what the full context of color management is within the UI/UX industry is, or if it's something that many pay attention to, or if it's just left un-managed.
Currently a vast majority of designers are using high gamut displays to design. Our final output will however differ greatly without some proper color management implemented. If color managment is implemented, we can at least visually soft proof our design and colors to specific devices (ie: New iOS devices that support P3 color gamut), or older sRGB devices.
At the same time sRGB images used won't expand to the display's high color gamut, making them look over saturated.
(Currently using Windows Beta Version: 0.6.8.6)

I have a theory on why this doesn't have 1000's of upvotes. No real professionals are using XD. They all stay on Sketch. I live in the bay and I am noticing hardly anyone knows about Adobe XD or what it does. Sketch rules here. The main reason is we designers can't work on wide gamut displays and design with XD. No color management makes the web style guide feature a joke. Why can't Adobe copy and paste the existing color management from Illustrator?

I need the possibility to color manage SVGs. It's really important since browsers interpret image data differently, when they lack a color profile. E.g. Firefox uses the maximum of the display's color space while Safari uses the active display color space. Images on websites therefore can look very different when exported with XD right now.

This is an absolute necessity. Makes working on a wide gamut display impossible. As long as this is not getting fixed I am stuck with Sketch.

I can only echo the comments below. Adobe is certainly not ignorant to color management. What I find baffling is that their own internal users and advocates would be satisfied with this condition. Wide gamut screens and display are certainly more prevalent than ever in the design community. My workflow is currently to tune all colors in wide gamut display and then manually color select and map to sRGB equivalents to get as close as possible (obviously not completely possible given sRGB color space vs others). Alternatively I guess I could start working on a sRGB only screen for Adobe XD specific workflows

Our design team creates on a mac. I open on a PC (Windows 10) and it is always under-saturated for me. Really frustrating.

At a minimum, you need to implement a CMS engine equivalent to a web browser. -

A Complete nightmare please fix this!! @AdobeXD

We need this asap, newer Macs display higher/wide range of colors and this makes it look too saturated in XD due to lack of color management. This problem will probably affect more and more people until it's fixed.

Today I switched from the old iMac 2012 to new iMac Retina 2019.
Now I also got this Problem! Unable to work with correct colors in Xd. Terrible! -

I'm facing a lot in color difference while export in any formate (including the final prototype). PFA. When I push the final prototype to client-side getting a lot much feedback regarding the color difference. Kindly consider this as a high priority to fix or I might lose my clients.

It's been three years and this isn't fixed yet? This is not a minor issue, it's a blocker. I cannot use XD because of this in a professional context. I wish the XD team could get their priorities straight.
