[Feature Request] Dark mode for macOS

[sjurlohne]

I love this app! Only thing I'm missing right now is Dark Mode for macOS. Is it possible to get?

Thanks!!

Not sure if it would be possible to link it to the system wide Dark Mode, but Android Messages does already include the option to "Enable dark theme" if you click on the three dots to the right of "Messages" at the top left.

Hey @sjurlohne and @danieltaylor , thanks for reporting this. Electron just recently implemented the ability to obey the system dark mode, and I already have some code written to make this work. I can tell you that the next release will include a setting to obey the system dark mode--hopefully within the next week.

@danieltaylor Thanks for the tip! It works great for now! @chrisknepper Thanks for the feedback, the dark theme works just fine, now that I found it, so no rush :)

I don't know if this is a side effect or not, but I have my Windows 10 dark mode disabled, as I usually do screenshots for my job, but notice that even though Dark Mode is set in the Messages app and the option is listed as "disable dark mode", dark mode appears to be activated, but light mode/white is what is visible. I have to disable dark mode in the app, then re-activate it to change it.

It usually only happens on first launch, so it isn't a major issue, but I thought I'd mention it.
