Closed roundhill closed 4 years ago

roundhill commented 10 years ago

A user requested that the app have a dark theme instead of the current holo lite theme: ​http://android.forums.wordpress.org/topic/switch-themes-feature?replies=1

skwakl commented 8 years ago

@roundhill @maxme Hi, we're thinking of working on this. Do you have any procedures or advice to give as a starting point?

rachelmcr commented 7 years ago

A user requested a night (dark) theme in a recent app review:

No night mode? This app is so bright it hurts

Another user requested a dark theme in 109376-h:

Please add a amoled friendly true black theme to the app.

Noting these user requests here so we can track the frequency.

If N includes a system switch for night mode/dark themes that would be preferred over a setting in the app. (p4a5px-1kH-p2)

We got another request for a dark theme.

Night mode in Android 7.0 is a sadly a blue light filter (tint the whole screen orange) like flu.x.

So a Dark Theme is unrelated to that.

rachelmcr commented 7 years ago

We have another request for this in an app review:

Night mode feature, please! I hope you add this feature to let the night bloggers like me write and edit their posts.

(This user is on Android 5.1 so they also don't have access to night mode in Android 7.0.)

rachelmcr commented 7 years ago

Another app review (4 stars) mentioned wanting a night mode:

It would be great if there was a 'night mode' as well.

rachelmcr commented 6 years ago

Another app review requested night mode:

Something I'd like would be a "night mode" to write comfortably with the lights off!

pwd-github commented 6 years ago

This app just hurt my eyes. It definitely needs a night mode.

sarahblackstock commented 6 years ago

A user downgraded a 5-star review to 1-star due to lack of night mode.

sarahblackstock commented 6 years ago

User (who loves the app and wants to use it as their main writing app) has sent feedback requesting night mode:

But to create in the evening, in a room with a guest light and a cup of hot cocoa, with your application, is difficult. Righteous light pouring from the tablet, with the running "WordPress", burns the tired eyes of the day, and you have to climb into the settings to reduce the flame of the fire screen.

From a 4-star review:

A great app for blogging. Would even be better if you could change the background theme to night mode.

sarahblackstock commented 6 years ago

Request for night mode in support.

Dark theme. I had a client of this app on BlackBerry 10 with a dark theme, perfect for working at night. Please take this into account for future updates.

SiobhyB commented 5 years ago

From another four star review:

Wordpress is almost fully functional with a clean interface. The only thing I miss is a dark subject. All in all, a great job.

SiobhyB commented 5 years ago

From a four star review:

Great app. Can we get a dark theme soon?

melindahelt commented 4 years ago

From a three star review:

There should be a night reading mode, change the font size. The App also has restrictions on finding the chapters of the poster, sometimes I find the post others have already posted on the app without it but on google it appears.

khaykov commented 4 years ago

We are actively working on implementing the Dark Theme, so if necessary it's OK to mention it.

SiobhyB commented 4 years ago

From a four star review:

The app is excellent, just one thing. If youł could look into integrating dark mode on it that would be great. The white is straining on the eyes

I'll mention it's being actively worked on. :)

erricgunawan commented 4 years ago

From a three star review:

I mentioned it's being actively worked on.
