It’s as bright as the morning sun and my eyes can’t handle it! Please add dark mode for all the Google AI reasons below (I ask AI what is dark mode :)

 

Dark mode is a feature that changes the color scheme of a device or application from light to dark, with the goal of reducing eye strain, saving battery life, and making it easier to use in low light: 

  • Aesthetically pleasing: Some people find dark mode more aesthetically pleasing. 
  • Reduces eye strain: Dark mode reduces the contrast between the screen and the environment, which can help with eye strain. 
  • Conserves battery life: Dark mode can help save battery life on devices with OLED or AMOLED screens, since black pixels can be turned off completely. 
  • Easier to use in low light: Dark mode can make it easier to use a device in low-light environments. 
  • Improved accessibility: Dark mode can improve visibility for people with low vision or who are sensitive to bright light. 

Dark mode is available on many smartphones, including iPhones and iPads. You can also enable dark mode on websites and in browsers, such as Chrome. 

Dark mode was originally the norm, before light mode became more common. When personal computers were first available, monochrome monitors were the only option, and the phosphorus used in the monitors appeared dark on the screen

Lucid is really lagging behind on this feature compared to other apps.

Been 3 years since the original thread and they still can’t manage a dark mode.
