App icon themes

WeWrite will allow several different themes to make the reading experience optimal for different brightness environments and user preferences. It's not yet decided how users will access theme settings. 

System theme

By default, System Theme will be selected.[1]

Light themes

  • "White" - black on white

  • "Sepia" - brown on light brown

Dark themes

  • "Black" - white on black

  • "Grey" - white on grey

  • "Blue" - white on blue

  • "Astronomy" - red on black

Images

Images will allow two different versions, one for a dark theme and one for a light theme. 

Sync with App Icon

how difficult would it be to sync the app icon with the page theme set? Perhaps users could disconnect the two and pick each independently, but by default they could be synchronized?

Philosophically, this would achieve the effect where the app icon would truly be a "window" into the app's state, it would show the user what they're about to tap into.

Apparently this is difficult to achieve with an App icon because Apple requires some user input to approve app icon changes, so this might be off the table until the Apple APIs change. A widget could accomplish this, with the drawback that we'd have to develop a widget, which we don't want to do.
