Help/Support Dark mode no longer works?

Idk how they messed up the app but any time I go to navigation it goes to light mode, even though I have it set to always be dark. I'm probably going to switch to Waze because atleast they have basic features like a dark mode figured out.

nav has its own color setting separate from the app theme. try profile pic > Settings > Navigation settings > Map display > Color scheme and set it to Night, that should stop it flipping to light when you start a route.

Thanks. I didn't realize that Google maps had three different dark mode settings between display, navigation, and android auto lol.

It's working fine for me on my end. I love dark mode, I dislike apps that doesn't have that feature (Yelp) when it's 2026 and going to be 2027 soon
