Android dark mode glitches

Hello,

Not sure the devs are aware of that but the pieces colors are glitching when turning dark mode on an android system.

When moving them the color is using the opposite one, even during the animation, here is an example

Also I tried to make an exception for dark mode but the application is not listed into the app list for some unknown reasons.

Am I the only one to have this issue ? Is there a way to fix that without turning dark mode off on my entire device ? Thanks

(also notice the last move indicator color, which is originally yellow, is dark grey in this case which is not pleasant for the eyes)

Try clearing your app cache.

I switched my device to Dark mode and had no issue. Since neither post mentioned clearing that, I had no way know if that may have been done or not.

Next step would be clearing the App Data and if that doesn't help, uninstall, reinstall.

That's interesting to know your android is MIUI, maybe I should have mentioned that my phone is Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 pro and I also have a MIUI system. Could that be the issue ? probably since I also have other weird bugs (not chess.com app related) that the community of samsung users doesn't seem to have.

If that's MIUI related I am afraid that the devs are not going to have much power to fix this issue.

By the way, I also reported that to the team, they took quite a while but they have answered my email back. They said we are not the only ones to complain about that and they are trying to find a way to fix that in future updates. Maybe we have nothing to do but to wait.

Thanks a lot for your precious help!

Unfortunately this has nothing to do with the cache, it's how the system (when switching to dark mode) renders colors in app containers (it sees white -> it replaces it with black color). Unless the devs find a way to bypass this constraint, there is nothing we can do user-side.

Yes I noticed that this morning. Thanks team !
