We’re aware not everything is fixed yet, but we wanted to release it to Labs so that you can experience dark mode for a few months before a full release. We’re keeping track of things that aren’t quite right, e.g. bank logos, gradients, etc., and will aim to fix them soon.
Regarding the cards that blend in, would you prefer to have light and dark mode versions of pot images to get around this?
The sad truth is this feature has been ready since July we’ve just been teased with the solstice. Very clever labs release
Couple o things I would like that would improve it for me - and not to take away from how nice it looks so far:
A standard night mode, and a “darker” night mode (the Reddit App apollo does this well)
A greyer shade of text instead of White for night mode. Still a bit bright.
And possibly a less bright picture of the card on the Carousel too. (I’m imagining the way iOS darkens your home screen background in night mode here, if that makes sense. My white Premium card is glaring at me).
Ah darn! I was hoping this bug getting fixed might have been an added bonus of all the work being done for dark mode. You can temporarily fix it by swiping down on the card to go to the account list view and going back to your feed, but it’s not ideal. Hopefully this gets fixed soon!
Thanks for the labs release which looks just great. As someone who has eye issues I’ve struggled at times with the Monzo app but this dark version will help. I’d like to thank you for all the hard work you have put into this.
Amex are another app that have this option, so it’s good to see Monzo getting on board with that configurability too.
Plus all this, eventually, please:
Also, possibly an option for Premium users to choose to have no tint (like standard users), the blue tint (like Plus) or the purple tint (like Premium). Plus would obviously not include the premium option, but it would have the other two. A bit like how you have a “change icon” menu.
It’s better than what we had before. Hopefully a darker theme is made available when it fully releases. For now I’m going to have to switch to light mode because this just hurts more. Too much blues and purples and the it’s hard to differentiate with the whites
