Dark Mode is finally here in Krisp 🌙
by•
It took… longer than it should have, mostly because it kept getting deprioritized in quarterly planning. And the annoying part is: the longer you wait on dark mode, the bigger it gets. More components to adjust, more edge cases, more workflows to test.
So we stopped debating it. No justification, no comparisons. We just shipped it.

I'll admit it – I'm definitely in the minority that never felt the need for Dark Mode. I was always the one pushing it back as a 'nice-to-have'. :D
But then reality hit. On one of my projects, we started getting more and more requests until it was impossible to ignore. I still didn't get the hype, but the user feedback was loud and clear. It’s funny how a feature you personally find 'unnecessary' can become the number one request from your community.

@tereza_hurtova yes, totally agree. I am also team - "Light mode" so I understood the pain but didn't feel it myself :)

Curious for other builders here: when did you add dark mode?
Was it there from day 1?
Or did you add it after a certain milestone (PMF, redesign, mobile launch, etc.)?
And if you delayed it, did it also become a “compounding cost” project for you?
Would love to hear how others decided when it was “time.”

Also, if anyone has strong opinions on dark-mode pitfalls (contrast, accent colors, charts, shadows, empty states), I’m all ears. We’re going to keep polishing based on feedback.
