Unreadable when dark mode is iOS default

The app would be fine if it could be read. It is not properly configured to display in dark mode. The text does not turn white on the dark background when the iOS dark mode is activated as the default display setting, so the app presents black text on a black background. The developers have had more than a year to respond to this issue, and they simply have not.

Great resource, but….

This app is a great resource, as a medical student I can testify that it is extremely useful. I have a few gripes though, the app can be pretty buggy at times and also there is no option to switch the app itself from dark to light mode, I have to switch the setting on my phone in order to be able to switch it on the app. The premade dark mode “integration” is awful, the information is written in dark grey on a black background so it is very difficult to read. I don’t know if the development team abandoned this app or not, but if they could fix it, the app would be perfect.

Dark background needs to go

I can’t read anything due to the dark background. Is there a way to fix this

Could be useful

I used to purchase hard copies of the PDR. I thought this app would be helpful and I suppose if the developers actually used the app, it could be as helpful as the print version. It’s hard to tell the utility of the app because the text is not legible. Dark text on a dark background does not make for easy reading - or for reading at all! So this renders the app useless!

Too difficult to read!

Desperately needs an update to make the app more readable. Dark gray type on a black background is too hard on the eyes. If there’s a way to adjust the brightness, I haven’t found it.

Concur with others about readability

The color scheme “dark on dark” is virtually unreadable making the application extraordinarily difficult to use. Would not recommend

Great app

This would be such a great app to have if you could read it!
Update: switched my iPhone from “dark mode” to light and all is well! Can’t wait to use this more!

Does not work with dark mode on iphone

If your phone is set to dark mode like mine is, the text AND information are both dark and hard to read. On light mode i can read it, but i prefer to keep my phone on dark mode so this app is basically useless for me. Please update to make compatible with dark mode!

Difficulty reading text

I often have great difficulty reading the text information because it is dark against a similarly dark background. Thus, because there’s no contrast, the letters are faint and obscured. This has to be corrected. Sometimes the only way I can make out the text is to increase the screen brightness to its maximal setting. This certainly doesn’t help in maintaining the battery life of the mobile device especially if it is already at a low percentage of charge. Please help!!

Excellent App, one minor inconvenience

This app is amazing. However, I would like to see an update that allows me to be able to read the information without having to switch my iPhone (running IOS 16) to light mode.
