Many Android users experience a frustrating issue with dark mode detection when using wallpapers that are predominantly white or light-colored. Despite the light appearance, the system incorrectly classifies these wallpapers as dark, resulting in an undesirable dark text and shadow effect on seemingly white backgrounds.

This issue affects both the lockscreen and launcher, making the user interface visually unappealing and difficult to read. There are several potential solutions that could address this problem:
1. **Dynamic System-Wide Dark Mode Toggle:** A toggle that forces both the lockscreen and launcher into dark mode regardless of the wallpaper's color scheme would provide a consistent and customizable experience.
2. **Pixel Launcher Dark Mode Enhancement:** In the absence of a system-wide solution, allowing users to force the Pixel Launcher to utilize dark status bars, At a Glance widgets, and icon labels would be a significant improvement.

While Lawnchair Launcher offers a similar functionality with customizable dark themes, a complete system solution would be ideal for a seamless and controlled dark mode experience.
