in night mode block stuff with the apps dark mode background color, not white

In WhatsApp, it puts white boxes over the AI features which are very distracting, would be better if it was black or the apps background color.

The rules I used for this (includes an extra one)

com.whatsapp##viewId=com.whatsapp:id/empty_search_carousal##desc=##color=111111##comment=Hide AI suggestions in search dark
com.whatsapp##viewId=com.whatsapp:id/fab_second##desc=##color=111111##comment=Hide AI button dark
com.whatsapp##viewId=com.whatsapp:id/newsletter_directory_row_container##color=111111##comment=Hide recommended channels dark

Thanks, I've added support for dark theme now and added your additional rule.

Could the color for dark mode be #111111 instead of black to blend in with the background a bit better?

Good q. On some phones, dark mode is fully black to save battery on OLED displays. They have a different night mode. I'm not sure if there's a way to detect this. I'll double check!

My phone also has this, but whatsapp does not have this feature and so won't have a black background on any phone. I suggest adding a new parameter to the rules called darkColor or the like which defines the color in dark mode.
