I did search for this a few times on here, only found 1 post where someone had a similar issue, but it was not solved.

I have a 12 Pro Max running iOS 16.3.1 running Firefox 111.1 (29556), and since well before that version (about a month now), I have had a persistant issue where "Night Mode" (that is, for webpages) is ALWAYS toggled on.

Dark mode (that is, my iPhone uses darker colors instead of white) is enabled on my phone, and settings do say to follow the Dark mode setting on my phone, but up until a month ago it would only do that for themeatic styling of the browser (tab bar, menus, etc) and not force night mode on every page. On pages that already use a dark styling, it is creating a horrible white inverted mess.

I can toggle night mode off, but as soon as the tab is closed, it will revert to rendering a page in night mode by default.

Is this just me? I have searched around forums and found I seem to be the only one with the issue. I've since switched to Chrome on my phone, but I love FF, it's my main driver on desktops. I'm not having this issue on my iPad Pro (also using iOS dark mode), which makes me think something with the phone settings is getting weird.

Thank you for your assistance.

The same thing is happening to me. Started about the same time and have not been able to find a fix. All the help articles point me to forcing light or dark mode but neither seems to disable night mode.

Thank you for confirming I'm not alone, but there are NO helpful posts on the internet or their github... I can't imagine its this isolated a problem.

Again, working on my iPad, just not iPhone.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and for the moment it appears fixed. Now on 111.2. will continue testing these next few days
