May 2026 Design & UX Polish

Polished Ongi's design tone and added a new dark mode toggle in Settings. Returning users now get a one-time summary modal explaining the gradual lock timeline.

🎨 Design Consistency Polish

  • Onboarding Step 2 polish: adult Oni alignment, unified chart preview tone, English button overflow fix on Step 4

  • Oni page help button now matches the brand orange tone; the otter emoji in the emotion guidance modal is replaced with the ongi logo; "Oni's words" section is simplified to just the speech bubble

  • Codified Ongi's design system — 5 brand principles in PRODUCT.md plus "The Quiet Hearth" palette (12 tokens + 8 Named Rules) in DESIGN.md. A foundation for consistent UI work going forward

🌍 Localization Fix

  • Fixed the reconsent modal header badge — its notice text was leaking Korean to English users

👤 User Experience Improvements

  • One-time summary modal for free users returning after 7+ days of inactivity, showing the gradual lock timeline (days 1-3 free → day 4 charts / day 5 expressions / day 6 diary). Closes the gap for users who missed the daily lock toasts

  • New dark mode toggle in Settings (Light / Dark / System default), tailored for late-night and early-morning use. Synced across devices via Firestore for signed-in users. Full dark theming across screens will roll out in follow-up updates
