Dark Mode turns off automatically

[BryanElliott]

Dark mode keeps switching itself on and off for whatever reason and I cannot seem to replicate to problem. Is this a bug ? Has anyone else been running into this issue ?

Never run into that issue... I've had dark mode on for months now.

Same, I've had it on since Yosemite was still in beta.

When does this happen? After you reboot, after a specific time of the day? Do you have an application installed that might affect this, F.lux for instance?

I have this problem, too, but my wife, who has the same MBP as I but is on 10.2, doesn't. Dark Mode gets turned off after restarts and most sleeps. Typically the long sleeps.

I do use F.lux. I'm going to turn it off and see what happens.

On another note, I've noticed that when the cursor is in the Message App, I can't four-finger swipe to change screens. I have to click outside of the app.

Edit to add: When I quit F.lux, Dark Mode immediately turned off.

F.lux has a separate option for the dark theme now, maybe that’s enabled?

I noticed that, but I'm rarely on the computer after dusk. I suspect the app was the issue, not that it was very troublesome.

Turning F.lux seems to have solved the issue.
