Since the last update I am unable to change to light background. Also my contact under my apps is smaller. I also want to swipe sideways for my apps instead of down.

Found the problem!!

Check the power saving setting - SETTINGS / BATTERY.  If POWER SAVING is on, you are stuck in dark mode.  Turn it off and things go back to normal.

@joand If you want your apps screen to swipe left/right:

  1. Open the Apps screen
  2. Click the 3 dots at the end of the search bar
  3. Click on Sort
  4. Change it to Custom order

??? i don't get it. That doesn't affect the Display issue. Dark is there and can't change to Light in the Display segment of settings.
