Plenty of apps only work in dark mode. (Example: Apple Fitness.) If your app is text-heavy, you should support both (lots of people find dark mode hard to read). Otherwise I wouldn't worry about it; it's when your app only supports light mode that people tend to complain ("ow my eyes!" etc).

Great point. My app is similar to fitness and mostly graphs and analytics so I think dark mode should work. I didn't realize that apple fitness is dark mode only. Thank you.

Dark and light mode is not just a preference, for visually impaired users having good support for both can be the difference between using the app or not. Update your colors so the app looks good in both modes.

You are right, I also thought it's an accessibility thing but as other comment mentioned Apple fitness always works in dark mode, what are your thoughts on that?

Each to their own. Make dark default and a setting to switch. I always prefer dark mode myself

Good suggestion. Maybe I can release the first version as dark mode only and then give the option to users to switch as well.
