Dark theme on iPhone/Android App

[Oxtrader]

The new IG Web platform has a really nice Dark theme - but when is this coming to the iPhone & Android? 

 

These are much softer on the eye in the dark.. !

Hi - unfortunately this isn't on our road map at present for mobile, however I will certainly submit it at the end of the month to our developer teams. However to manage expectations I wouldn't see this moving up the priority list due to other road mapped projects. 

 

The primary reason for the desktop push in the new web trading platform was due to a number of clients requesting this as the primary screen they trade from when dealing for extended periods. A mobile, however, doesn't have as significant a 'time in use' value which is probably why client demand isn't quite as prominent.

 

EDIT: to this end if any other community members want this please note in the comments section below so I can provide greater client sentiment. Thanks

I would love this too!!!! So much easier on the eyes, it would improve the platform tenfold on its own in my eyes (no pun intended🤣)

Add me to the list of those who would very much benefit from this.

 

I primarily trade from my iPad for extended periods of time.

This is available for andriod but we're still finishing up the ios apps. I will let the community know once this is available for IPads

Hope this is coming soon as its painful.

I would also suggest you to have a look at Trading212 app for functionality inspiration on future ig app upgrades.

Would love to see this as an option.

Well what timing, lol.. Loaded the app on my ipad to check something else and Dark Mode is here. Thank you.

Hi is the dark mode coming or is it on the iPhone yet? Definitely would help a lot on the eyes for me personally
