Title really, it’s the first thing everybody looks for when they download something.

    Disagree. All apps should start by following the system mode. That way you get the app the way you like it and don’t have to change it.

      Yup. The latest app I’ve built has 3 modes.

      • System (default)
      • Light
      • Dark

      It gives that setting right on start-up and saves the users selection as the new default straight after. It’s not too hard to implement. At least not in Angular. Native Android on the other hand is a pain in the neck. I found react native to also bee rather painful.

      Yes to this. It bugs me so much that they have the “follow system” option and it’s practically never the default.

      It would be such a simple way of giving users a slightly customised experience out of the box.
