New feature update - Dark Mode

6 replies

NermanaMumsnet · 22/09/2022 15:45

Hi everyone,

We just launched a new feature - dark mode view.

If you would like to try it, please go to Settings > Display, and there you will see 3 options:
-Default view - shows light or dark mode depending on your device settings
-Light view - shows the current view
-Dark view - shows the dark colour variant

The settings change will only affect the device you use to make the change. We’d love to hear what you think of this feature, so let us know in the comments what you think 😊

Have a lovely day 😊

Nermana

Hey @dudsville if you click on the My Mumsnet icon on the top right, the settings menu is in there.

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for your feedback.

A lot of you have been asking about dark mode on the apps, which is currently not available. Due to the high number of requests, we’ll be looking to add it in the future.

Some of you commented on the colours we’ve chosen for dark mode and the contrast they create. These colours will remain default in dark mode for now, but we’ll continue testing and monitoring to make sure there are options that suit everybody.

We also understand your concern about exclusively providing dark mode to logged-in users. Right now it can only be toggled on and off in Display settings, and you must have an account to access these settings.

@FTMbg sorry to hear you’re having issues with the app! Would you mind getting in touch with us directly at [email protected] so we can investigate further?

One more time big thank you to everyone.

Hi @HotToddyColdSauvignon and @TeapotReady and thank you for your messages.

We have been aware of this issue but we believe it has been fixed last Monday.
Is it ok if I ask you to check if the issue is still present on your end?

If you still have the issue, it would be great if you'd be ok to help us by sharing screenshots so we can try and get it sorted.

Thank you.

Hi @NumberTheory
It's a pretty small percentage at the moment - less than 1% - but that's entirely expected given that it's only just been introduced.

Hi everyone 😊

I am sorry to hear that some of you still have issues with the dark mode settings.

@HotToddyColdSauvignon and @SpinMeRightRoundBabyRightRound we really want to get to the bottom of the problem, so could you possibly do a screen recording so we can see what’s happening? Please send it to us at [email protected] .

Thank you all.

Have a great day ahead.

Getting a bit annoyed by the fact I can’t turn it back off again @NermanaMumsnet
your tech team have been in touch but bacuakky just said “oh right… we’ll look into that” and haven’t heard anything since.

it’s bloody hard to read in dark mode, it’s the most unreadable dark mode I’ve ever seen on a website. Bizarre as I prefer dark mode on most other sites

Hello
