Any update on when we’ll get dark mode?

[Chipopolis]

It’s currently February of 2025. I know Fitbit made small changes to their apps color palette and made it a bit darker but it’s not much of a change. I’m visually impaired and my eyes don’t dilate and even when I turn the brightness down on my phone it doesn’t help much.

I found this on instagram and changed mine, it is still white for a second when you open the app, but until they get their finger out and bring out dark mode, it will do for me. Give it a try..

If you head into your settings under accessibility in your iPhone, you can choose any app and customize the color by turning on the smart invert.

@Chipopolis Welcome to the forums. @M4C Thanks for your overall help!

@Chipopolis Thanks for sharing your experience. I understand how important this feature is for you and while we don't have an official dark mode, please know  this idea was already requested in the Product Feedback board, so our developers can keep tracking its popularity over time.

In the meantime, I'd give a try to the suggestions shared by our friend and see if that works for you. I appreciate your feedback and please keep posting your ideas!

@LizzyFitbit   The Fitbit Team reported that you are working on dark mode in this Blog article from Oct 2023.  This is hugely popular.  I don't think you need any more feedback.  I hope you agree that this is a little absurd.

@LizzyFitbit oh, please. If anyone at Fitbit isn't sure that dark mode is a popular demand from the user base, they aren't paying attention. 

At this point, it feels like it's being purposely avoided, either due to incompetence or spite.

A LOT absurd.

Hi there, @LZeeW and @mikey_pdx.

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts about this idea. I understand your point of view. Currently, we don't have any updates about when this feature will be available. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We are always working to improve our products based on feedback from our members, and yours is highly valued. If there is a change in the status of this feature, we will update the product feedback accordingly.

Thank you that is really helpful.  Now I can play a back to sleep meditation in the small hours without dazzling myself.  Only the videos look weird!
