Many of us feel the same way as you do!
As I get older, I find that “dark mode” really helps me read app screens. You can even turn it on in this forum under your user preferences. But no joy from Wyze yet.
You can read the reasons why and vote on this Wishlist idea here:
I’d love to see a dark mode theme for the app with a black or mostly black interface.
