Dark Mode Icon

Certain apps allow us to change the color of the icon like TimePage or GoodTask. I know it may go against Outlook’s main color brand, but a dark mode icon could still be beneficial since it would give users an option to use for their iPhone themes.

    I see that you have already made a dark app icon for outlook and I'm wondering if you will make those app icons for all your other apps, because currently having just one black icon with all the other white ones makes it stand out in an ugly way.

    I love the dark mode interface but I would like to see a toggle for just email messages to be displayed in light mode. Some formatting of emails is very hard to read with dark mode.

    You don’t need a dark mode icon on outlook for IOS

    Go to control center>press and hold on brightness>dark

    mode

    In dark mode the lines that go across the calendar at each hour mark are incredibly faint making it confusing to read
    If you have a 1 hr meeting that starts at 9:30, for example, you see a big block with “10 am” next to it. It really looks like the meeting is at 10 vs spanning over that hour

    I’ve been using calendar outlook for years though mostly desktop and windows phone and never had an issue but have had multiple on dark mode iOS

    The email count is very difficult to see/read when using the folder view. Suggest a whiter font or highlight each folder which contains new emails.

    Allow for the option of toggling dark/light mode at the message level.

    Most of the time dark mode is ok for reading messages but there are times where images or text disappear or are hard to read due to the dark background. The toggle at the message level would avoid this issue.

    Thanks

    At first, I thought there was no way to edit my Favorites in Outlook for iOS. However, I eventually noticed a pencil icon to the right of the Favorites header. Unfortunately, the icon is dark gray on a dark background. Please make the icon white in dark mode, or at least a lighter shade of gray, and perhaps slightly larger as well. Thanks.

    The icons used for Dark Mode are not bright enough. Please use a more contrasting icon.

    Yellow highlighting is also VERY common and very hard to read in dark mode. Having a button would help. Or showing highlight more prominently maybe even better

    When in dark mode, a pasted photo in an email (such as an excel screenshot) is unviewable if the photo has any white elements.

    Colour of table cells pasted in email body should be more visible in dark mode.
    Currently it is very dark and not clearly visible compared to table in light mode.

    Emails are generally in white background by default. However when the “Dark Mode” is on, sometimes I find it really difficult to read, especially when the text in grey. Would you consider adding a temporarily “Switch Off Dark Mode” button in the mail view? Thanks.

    Wenn editing the autoresponder text in a EXCHANGE function and the dark-mode (system) is turned on, the text is in very light grey on white fild: not readable. Needs to be inverted to black-text please.

    thanks, Niko

    Please add this, simple button to toggle dark mode when viewing an email. Some emails don’t look well in dark mode. Airwatch Boxer has this.

    like the icon on my homescreen would be dark. i think all yall get the idea. anyways i hope the team is having a great day and no one wants to kill themselves because of their jobs. i always tell my friends delete apple mail and install outlook because all yall made deleting mail faster.

    anyways, as always, deuces, safe travels, take it slow in the ice and snow, sent from outlook for my ipad,

    brian
