I don't know if we can implement this in time for the 10.3 release, but that's a super cool idea.
I really like this.

Ha, I had a very similar idea to improve the tray icon a few days ago @cmhrky! 😄

My thoughts were to also highlight the mode that is currently used in the tray icon, like:

• In light mode:
  For example, show the sun part of the icon with colors, and the moon part in gray
• In dark mode:
  For example, show the moon part of the icon with colors, and the sun part in gray

Or use dedicated icons for it (e.g. light: sun / dark: moon).

Showing that automatic switching is paused (pause symbol overlay) or disabled (all gray icon), as you suggested, can be combined with it as well.

You are so fast. Thanks. Will there be tooltip information?

I will play around with it, but no guarantees that it will make it into a final build.
That's also a bit more complex to do because of translation strings and formatting and would take a bit longer.

If AutoDarkModeSvc.exe is restarted while ADM is disabled, the tray icon appears to be enabled.

Also, if there is an active delay set manually, it will be canceled on the next restart. I don't know the status of the Tray icon.

Oh yes, it doesn't update this. will fix

Also, if there is an active delay set manually, it will be canceled on the next restart.

That is intentional.

There will be tooltip information in the next build!
It'll be more rudimentary than when opening the context menu but will provide some info about ADM's current theme state.
