Its more the fascination people have with dark mode. When I see comments about it its not just an announcement that dark mode is available but its "Wow it has dark mode" or "I love the dark mode." Ok so you like dark mode. So what? I like light mode but you don't see me saying "Wow I just love the light mode." I understand some might like dark mode and may actually need it. But feeling giddy about it is what I don't understand.

Brother, before this gets too far into the weeds, I rarely use dark mode, but I know some friends do. I posted that dark mode was a new feature on NWP because I knew that many here would appreciate the new feature. Please show Jehovah that you love your brothers and let them enjoy the new feature.

Giddy is not the accurate word here, it's appreciative. Light mode is nothing new. It's the default, the norm, the standard. Dark mode is a new feature and many appreciate that new feature greatly.

My thoughts exactly. Appreciative is the word for sure. Perspective may come into play, some simply find joy in the little things in life. The older I get the more I try that approach.

Not sure about the new one but I use it regularly on a Surface Pro X with snapdragon. It's not really snappy but it works just fine.

In the NWS app, on the Congregation Overview page, to the right there is a circular graph that is supposed to show number of widows and couples. Where do we enter that information?

[molnarj]

Go to Congregation > Groups and Families > Families. There you can select the names in the right Column and add them to the middle Column. On top there is a dropdown list where you can select the option Widow or one of the other options. 

 

Also, in the Persons section and Information Tab you can create Families and link persons to Families. They will also be displayed in the Families Tab.

 

Hope this helps.

Do not accuse me of not loving the friends. I typed out several paragraphs and then deleted them. I will just leave it at that.

How about "overly excited." That is what it seems to me because there have been plenty of new features but none compare to the excitement of dark mode in my opinion. I was just wondering why there seems to be more excitement over it than other features. 

 

I should add that its not just here where I have seen the excitement. My question was more general than about NWP specifically. There may not have been that much excitement here specifically. It just added to what I am already seeing elsewhere. So its not why are people excited here on this topic about NWP. Its more general than that and widespread. So apologies for not being clear.

 

I also feel that if so many people are excited about dark mode and I am not then I must be missing or not understanding something and I don't want to be left out.
