Other Your iPhone's Appearance: Light or Dark Mode

[Pipper99]

Light mode: I don't like white text on a black background.

Light mode during the day, and I triple-press my home button to change to "smart invert" the colours when it's night.

Dark is a fad. Android had dark mode (ie, the only mode) from damn near the beginning and no one cared.

Yes, i do not like the dark mode, too.

LOL. I must really hold on to fads then. I've had dark mode through jailbreak since 2013. A lot of people jailbroke their phones for dark mode, especially since iOS 7 came out with blinding white.

Six years is a long time for a fad, a long time for people to be asking Apple for the same thing don't you think?

Dark Mode 24/7. Light version looks weird now IMHO

I have tried Dark Mode running on iPhone XR, iPad Air 3 and MacBookAir (2019). Seems good for a time, but I always go back to light mode.

Dark Mode on all my Apple devices that support it.

Why is a raven like a writing desk?

I did the dark option at first, but then it was a bit uncomfortable for me so I stuck with automatic.

I was using dark mode in order to test it, throughout all the iOS 13 betas.

When the official build launched, I went back to light mode and couldn't be more happy!

In my eyes, dark mode looks more "techie" and light mode looks more clean and sophisticated, if we can say that about phone themes.

Apart from the looks of it, I believe reading black text on white, is much easier for my own eyes, which literally hurt whenever I was trying to read a pdf, or long texts in general.

It feels more natural to read digital text with the same look of a physical book or magazine.

Light mostly. But if I was on a pro I’d be using night whenever I need more battery life but it’s not my preferred option. Doesn’t look good to me.

 

[cocky jeremy]

Automatic, but only for when I first wake up. Much prefer light mode.

 

[Ungibbed]

Dark. Easier for me to see.

 

[UrbanGeek]

That’s one thing that is well past due....dark mode. Love it.

 

[revmacian]

What I would like is to have the option of a dark mode dock and menubar while keeping light mode for everything else. It looks fantastic in Linux (Mate and Cinnamon), I would think it would look equally amazing in macOS.

I dislike transparency/translucency and "Reduce Transparency" makes the dock and menubar an ugly white. Would be nice to use "Reduce Transparency" and be able to make the dock and menubar dark mode or control the color.

 

[Morrissey]

Are there any wallpaper or "themes" that can imitate the wallpapers that change Light/Dark, like the stock that came on the iPhone?

 

[CraigB1960]

I cannot get use to Dark Mode, so I keep mine in the Light Mode.
