Today's update to the beta[1] variant of the Android app includes the following changes:
Dark theme (night mode) ('''yes, it's finally here!''') Adjust font size based on system settings and make adjustable in app ('''another commonly requested feature''') Display abusefilter warnings and errors Show references in a pane at the bottom of the screen (without scrolling) Add search to Saved Pages screen Order saved pages alphabetically, instead of by date Add graphics and explanations for History and Saved Pages Don't show red links Add onboarding screen Hide edit pencils for file pages Improved appearance on 2.3 devices Fix multiple crashes
It may take an hour or two before it is visible for everybody. Please report any bugs you encounter, so we can fix them before we push the bits to the production app.
Enjoy! Bernd

I'm really excited to try out the Dark theme.
Very eager to see this get out to our users soon.

I tried it earlier, worked great! I can see why they asked for the dark theme back, it's nice for late night reading :). Users will be happy - the first reviews are already acknowledging it.
