Functionality + support for branding in Dark Mode

Hi there

 

As many may have noticed, big brands are starting to add in the option to view UI in Dark Mode. When we send out an email, our branding currently uses dark text - as most email clients (up until now) have had a light background. If we were to send out an email with our current logo and the user views it with their UI set to Dark Mode, it will appear like this:

We have reached out to find out whether HubSpot can send out the suitable logo version (either light text or dark text) depending on the user's interface preference, but there is currently no support for this.

 

Has anyone else experienced this same issue? We are not interested in changing our branding just to resolve this issue (some suggestions have been to add a stroke around the text or change the shade of the writing...)

 

Can HubSpot please consider support for this? We believe the inclusion of Dark Mode as a UI option will only increase going forward.

 

Thanks

Lou

Would love to see this as well. It's an essential feature especially as more and more people are switching to dark mode!

Considering how different emails look in dark mode, this is a critical tool we need. I also think anyone sending email out of hubspot no matter what account level should be able to preview their email in dark mode. I'm working out of a marketing starter account, and I don't know how to update the email so it looks good no matter who receives it. This is more than aggrevating and I don't have a way around it.

Hi team,

Raising this up for a customer here.

Would be great if we can have more control over what to display when users are using dark mode vs non dark mode (e.g. when dark mode > display white font etc.)

Thank you!

Ok, 3 years later and still no solution. Being able to preview an email in darkmode is a start - but all that does is show us how bad it looks 🤣 Surely there must be a way to set button, row background and text colours to be either forced, or at least a secondary option for when it displays in dark mode by now?

The recent Outlook update on Mac for dark mode completely ruins the readability of our emails.

Come on dev team - you've had 3 years, can we get an update on this please?

We're experiencing the same issue with the dividers showing up as white bars even though we would prefer them to be dark in dark mode, so that they become invisible. Hopefully this can be resolved soon!

Absolutely essential. Please enable dark mode options for marketing emails.

Same as above. Would love to see this feature to keep branding in place for dark mode users.

I'm guessing that since this has sat here for the better part of 2 years, and NOT even a mention from @hubspot, that this is not even on their radar to implement.

Roughly 1 in 5 of our recipients are using dark mode in their inboxes as far as we can tell. Customizing their experience shouldn't require the classic email editor. Having this baked into the drag and drop tool would be super handy.

It would also be nice to know how many people are viewing in dark mode as well. I just have to guess at this point.
