Other Your iPhone's Appearance: Light or Dark Mode

[murad_fourth]

Dark mode leads the poll.

With OLED the dark mode is a no-brainer. Saves your eyes and battery.

I disagree, I have the OLED 11 Pro Max and I have a brain, therefore I embrace the DARK SIDE.

Dark 24/7 - both my MBA at home and my W10 PC at work are in 'Dark Mode' (as much as they are able), so I'm more used to that.

 

[mamut]

I use Light mode

I tried Dark, and from time to time I put Dark mode, but my eyes just (I dont know how to explain) struggle more to read text and stuff...and when I put on light mode, it's a relief

maybe it's my eyes, but especially instagram in dark mode is so dark it hurts me, some other apps are little bit ''grey'' and thats fine for me

 

[Jessica Lares]

Dark with Reduce White Point set to 80%.

 

[gregorcic]

Light..

 

[cbreze]

Got used to the dark mode and now the white blinds me as being too bright so dark it is.

 

[dontwalkhand]

Light simply because I am fine with the UI being dark, but when they start making websites dark and the website doesn't properly have coding for it, things start to look funky.

Dark mode on since iOS 13 update. I had been desiring dark mode for years on my iPhone.

 

[mantan]

Dark mode is one of the features I was looking forward to. But i just don't like it as much during the day. So i went for automatic.

 

[Aljon]

Dark mode to save battery

 

[mjschabow]

If only Gmail would roll it out. Yes, I realize they say they did.

 

[The Game 161]

Would be nice if all web pages are dark but only macrumors seems to be...

 

[mag33]

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

Same. Dark mode starts to irritate me after a while.

 

[eyoungren]

…but only macrumors seems to be...

Do you know how long that took to happen?

 

[Pipper99]

Same. Dark mode starts to irritate me after a while.

I switch to Dark occasionally to see if I’ll get used to it, but it irritates me, too. I remember when Macs were introduced, and it was so great to see text on a computer like text on paper.

I’ve tried reading books in Kindle in Dark Mode, too, and I quickly find it to be unpleasant.

 

[ScreenSavers]

Automatic.

 

[PanAm-L1011]

I used to have it automatic, but now manually switch. To me Dark Mode has a long way to go. When I pull up Safari or other apps in Dark Mark, they major amount of content is still light, so it's almost like what's the point.

 

[OasisNYK]

Dark mode 100% since first day it was available.

 

[cbreze]

If only Gmail would roll it out. Yes, I realize they say they did.

My gmail has been dark for a couple weeks now. If you still don’t have it maybe double check your gmail theme setting and of course your phone theme

I've been waiting for Gmail dark mode for many weeks and still don't have it. Checked my app settings but couldn't find an option to enable it.

 

[Reno Raines]

I prefer the automatic mode myself.

 

[murad_fourth]

Many of us prefer dark mode (currently 45% with 75 votes).

 

[bluecoast]

Automatic. But living in the UK as the light gets gloomier, often I switch to dark mode in the day. Roll on summer.

 

[TrenttonY]

Automatic. All the same for iOS, macOS, tvOS.
