Bug Report

Problem

When dark mode is selected on the iOS settings, if you have a white background, using styleDefault will use light text instead of dark. Also tested using styleBlackOpaque with the same behaviour.

When dark mode is disabled, styleDefault will use dark text as expected.

Probably a new function styleDarkContent is needed.

What is expected to happen?

Using styleDefault should use dark text.

What does actually happen?

Using styleDefault will use light text instead of dark.

Information

1. Open iOS system settings and set dark mode.
