Why are my iPhone apps turning dark randomly?

Some of my apps keep turning dark, it is NOT because of parental control. I have no clue why this happens. In not lackadaisical to search why this happened, I think yes one knows about this. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Please notice that’s I can manually select a Dark Theme even if the System Theme is set to light. Check the settings for the apps in question.
