How about instead of an awful-looking dark mode they include a 'pretty' mode. You know, to make it look like iOS 6 again, the last version of iOS with a decent-looking GUI.
Got a tip for us?

Well then you don’t have to use it. Some people want it. The inverse setting looks pretty terrible.
Because dark mode looks like garbage.
I'll gladly give up a bit of battery life to not have to look at dark mode.
What an ignorant way of thinking. You realize thats your OPINION right? And that everyone has a different one, right?
Really hope that iOS 13 makes it to my iPad Mini 2. All I really want is the dark mode feature.
Time for me to speculate a bit,. Could this be a sign of oled screens on all models as oled uses no power on black pixels this could be the drop tha made apple decide to go for dark mode so the tagline could be look at ouer new oled screens and combined with ower new dar mode your batery will last longer!
Because then you wouldn't be forced to purcahse a new iPad for the sole reason of a storage upgrade when everything else spec wise about the device was still good...
My optometrist wanted to sell me yellow lenses because my white screen was ruining my eyes, and suggested using apps with dark colors and dimming the screen... I'm getting some mixed messages here.
To be fair though, the smart invert colors thing is pretty dope. I honestly haven't been missing an OS level dark mode thanks to that thing.
Never going to happen for the simple reason you wouldn't have to be forced to purchase a Macbook as well for the tasks that required a mouse. Same reason they wont put MacOS on a touch screen tablet because they arent willing to give up the people who would not buy an iPad as a companion to the MacBook.
If only everyone was as smart

We won’t
There are a lot of things that a lot of people said would never happen that ended up happening.
Mouse support won't come to the iPad unless Apple needs to do something to boost sales in the face of strong competition. Apple was "never" going to come out with a 7" iPad, but strong competition from 7" Android tablets forced Apple to respond. Apple was "never" going to produce a phablet, but strong competition from Android phablets forced Apple to respond.
Android tablets are all but dead. Chrome OS tablets are not quite out to the general public, and are potentially the next serious threat to the iPad. Should Chrome OS tablets take off, expect Apple to add support for mice to iOS.
But is the spilt screen for ipads and not iPhones?
Everybody wants it!!
Maybe do some research
You're joking right?
Everybody wants it!!
Seeing your notifications is useless? And it uses 2% of your battery per day.. And burn in never happens with always on display
Maybe do some research

I would really enjoy a redesigned lock screen and home screen on the iPhone.
You might be right but it's really sad it has to come to that for Apple to give such an abvious quality of life feature.
This would be great. There's absolutely no reason for most people to make phone calls either, and yet I still get them. *anger intensifies*
I think this is why most people have smart watches. I think it's more convenient to just check my wrist than to dig my phone out of my pocket. Might also be why you don't see the enthusiasts pleading for it anymore—most of them on the Apple side have Apple Watch.
TBH I think it's because most of us have given up on Siri, lol.
You're have it flipped. LCDs have an always on backlight across the entire display, while OLED/mLED only powers individual pixels.
I doubt this will ever happen. Maybe as a profile configuration for K-12, which actually might already exist in some form now that I think about it. I used to want this too, but it was for sharing with my wife. Now that I actually have kids, there's no way it would work because there would be too many people using iPads in the evening. Also there's no way I would let my kids handle my nice iPad. My daughter has an old iPad Mini 2 that we let her use for a little bit each evening after she does chores and it's in a very thick foam case with a handle.
So this is kinda awkward but the iPhone has had OLED since the iPhone X in 2017.
Sounds like an opinion you're trying to force on other people. Personally I prefer dark mode and use mostly apps that support dark mode, such as Overcast, Calcbot, Lightroom, Weather Underground, Apollo, YouTube, Things, Coda, Tweetbot, etc. I also use it on my Mac. Why? Because the bright white light gives me headaches when I'm using devices and I have to be on my devices all day for work. Dark mode is great for me and I haven't noticed any changes to my vision prescription. For me it helps me get more work done. For you it strains your eyes. Everyone is different. The sooner you learn this, the easier your life will be.
Not only is the volume HUD in the way but they actually managed to break it in 12.2!
I have to press the volume up/down on my headphones 3 times before the line suddenly jumps to the correct place.
Full usage of the USB C port and file system is a must at this point.
