On my MacBookPro, I use Chrome and the SW app's top menu is "dark" even though I don't have it set to dark mode. Same with my Chrome on my iPhone.
The SW developers likely did not do the work needed to switch Chrome's headers to the theme you selected, so it defaults to dark mode.

@Northwest I don't think it's even possible for website makers to change the theme of the browser. I mean, how would that even work if you have two tabs open with websites that specify a different style for the shared menus?

@NerdyPotato They can use the Emulate CSS media feature prefers-color-scheme to simulate both light and dark mode themes, usually when testing their applications' appearance under different color schemes. They can also can use DevTools to apply other effects, to further test your web application's responsiveness to different visual styles.

@Northwest does that affect the browser menus or just automate the generation of a contrasting scheme for the website itself though?
