Hi,
I‘ve noticed a bug when opening or rather viewing lists on the Wikipedia app whilst dark mode is turned on.
The table which is being displayed after opening the list doesn‘t change its background color from white to (probably) black, which prevents it from displaying the info (I think it‘s just the font that turned white too, which causes it to be illegible in the end). See enclosed screenshots (one with dark mode enabled and the other one with dark mode disabled).
I hope this information can be of help. If you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to message me.
Version: WikipediaApp/7.4.6.2972 (iOS 17.2.1; Phone)

I noticed the difficulty of displaying symbols in text layed on a dark or black background:
This might be the case on iPadOS, iOS, macOS, one example:
The article: “Greek numerals”/History/ >the text after’acrophonic’ :
Hide/show button in the desktop collapsible block is not adapted for the dark mode:
.mw-collapsible-toggle-default .mw-collapsible-text { color: #0645ad; }
on the web version
here's some text that should change but doesn't, on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Re:Zero_episodes
and another location that shouldn't change but does, two tables in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security
A small magnify icon inside the framed thumb image should be adapted for the dark mode:
.mw-content-ltr figure[typeof~='mw:File/Thumb'] > .mw-file-description::after, .mw-content-ltr figure[typeof~='mw:File/Thumb'] > .mw-file-magnify::after { right: 6px; left: auto; background-image: url(/w/resources/src/mediawiki.skinning/images/magnify-clip-ltr.svg?8330e); }

I've notices dark modes render some blue tones difficult to read under daylight. Attached are examples in sepia and black themes. The blue characters are difficult to read on the latter.

Hello. I would like to request a fix for the darkness of text under images in dark mode. Attached is example of what I see when using mobile app. I cannot find any setting to remedy this. I search Wiki quite often and have been using the app probably as long as it's been out and this has always been an issue.

Closing this umbrella task, since the underlying issues have been resolved (our Content Service's dark mode is now at parity with mobile web) (T369435).
Therefore, any further dark mode issues in specific articles can be addressed by editing the article itself, per our general guidance for dark mode compatibility.
Of course, if there happens to be a new dark mode issue in apps, and not in mobile web, please report it as a new task.
