Can't switch dark mode to light mode

Hello, I’m having the same problem on iPhone X , I can’t check the light mode, it’s stuck on dark mode. I was using automatic from sunrise to sunset but it’s now stuck on dark mode.

This worked for me::: Go to Settings-Display&Text Size-Turn off "Smart Invert"

Hi shafimohammed,

It sounds like you had a question about the display modes for your iPhone, and I want to help.

When you go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Light, are you able to put the check on Light mode under Appearance?

What happens when you try to switch? Let me know what happens.

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.

Same here. It won't let me click light mode. Switching to automatic doesn't work either...it stays in dark mode all day.

I’ve just had the same issue. Tried all solutions, none worked so I shut down and restarted, that worked.

Thanks, that worked for me

My iPhone automatically switched into dark mode and will not allow me to switch it to light

When this happens, it means my phone has suddenly changed my location to China! Ugh. I have to go to date and time, then change my location back to Cupertino. Restart my phone and it seems to look fine.

Well I got it to work by turning off true tone then turning it back on. THEN click light mode and it switched over.

Turn off invert colours

Thanks that works for me as well. When is Apple going to get their stuff together and fix this buggy iOS

I went into Display /Brightness and turned off the automatic scheduler, Sunrise to Sunset . Click to Custom settings, 6 AM to 12 AM. Worked!

Perfect - thanks very much
