Dark mode flashing white

Hey, every time I load a new page the page flashes white briefly before loading in dark mode. Started today, it did it a few months ago as well fro a day or two.

Same here.

And here. Only this evening.

It's giving me a headache so I'm not sticking around tonight.

Shedmistress · 04/02/2026 06:49

Mumsnet is the equivalent to dial up modems these be days.

StaySpicy · 04/02/2026 07:37

That’s exactly what it reminds me of!

While this thread is here, can MN please also change the colour of the all white splash screen that comes up when you first open the app, even in dark mode.
I spend a lot of time in the DCs bedrooms trying to get them to sleep and this splash screen makes my phone light up like a Christmas tree!

HebeMumsnet · 04/02/2026 09:30

Morning, everyone. We'll look into this now but any more information anyone can give us would be really helpful.

Could anyone having this issue let us know what device and browser they are using?

It would also be helpful to know where you are navigating from and to. ie between one thread and another, between the home page and Active Threads, etc...

And if anyone happens to be able to catch a screen video of this happening that would be even better.

Many thanks. Flowers

Android, chrome, it happens when loading any new page at all, whether it's Active, I'm On, or any thread.

Shedmistress · 04/02/2026 10:28

Its on android phone and tablet and on every page. Including 'im on' page. And active.

Breezy1985 · 04/02/2026 15:05

Just came here to see if anyone else was having the same issue, it's been the same since yesterday. Also android, chrome here and on every thing I click on, on the site.

AliDran · 04/02/2026 15:51

Android Samsung s24 chrome, and every page that loads. Its very off putting

VimesandhisCardboardBoots · 04/02/2026 16:42

It's doing it for me on an Android phone on both chrome and firefox.

Also on Windows PC on chrome, firefox and edge as well.

So pretty much everything I'm afraid!

I have this.
Using Android phone and Chrome on my laptop

Theeyeballsinthesky · 04/02/2026 18:39

iPhone and it's doing it when I switch threads and pages

CharlieUniformNovemberTangoYankee · 05/02/2026 05:34

It's still happening this morning. I'm using Chrome on an Android mobile. I've got a screen recording if it helps @HebeMumsnet?

Happytaytos · 05/02/2026 06:48

Android chrome. Every new page.

VimesandhisCardboardBoots · 05/02/2026 17:10

Seems to be fixed for me now

OP posts:
MaloryJones · 06/02/2026 09:06

It's ceased 👌

JoMumsnet · 06/02/2026 10:46

This should be fixed now. Glad to hear everything's working smoothly for you, @VimesandhisCardboardBoots and @MaloryJones
