Testing version:
iOS 2.0 (11416)
What were you doing:
Editing a note
What feature did you use:
On-screen keyboard
What happened:
Icons appeared in white whether the screen was in light mode or dark mode.
What did you expect to happen:
Icons appear in black/dark gray when the screen is in light mode, and only appear in white when the screen is in dark mode.
Note: force-quitting the app fixed this. I haven’t been able to figure out the series of steps to reliably trigger the icons getting stuck. But I think I have seen it in the reverse, too: stuck with black/dark gray color.
This sounds like an iOS glitch but if can figure out a way to reproduce this issue we’ll look into it.
Here’s a video; I’m able to replicate it reliably.
Note when the icons do and don’t change:
- they don’t change when I change the mode from control center
- they don’t change when I change from within settings
- they do change when I hide and show the keyboard
- they do change when I leave and return to a note which hides and shows a keyboard)

Thanks a lot. Of course, I can’t simulate this 
Which iOS release are you running?
iOS 16.5, iPhone 12
I am getting a new (used) iPad shortly; I will give it a try on there and see if it happens.
If anyone else is seeing this, please chime in on the thread with info on your setup too!
