dashboard lights colour

Guys, quick one here.
Is there any way of actually keeping the white light as default for the dashboard, without having it changed to orange in the night?
I had a look on bimmer's app and it looks that they don't give this option.
Cheers.

There is no white light. It's just bright white paint. The only light is the orange light.

Depends on the gauge cluster. The higher end gauge cluster has white lights and orange lights. Lights up white during the day and orange at night.

Exactly. Mine's white during the day and orange at night.
Is there any way of making it white only?

I have the 'high end' cluster lol!!

Not sure if it can be altered but I find the white light too bright at night, would be nice to have it as an option though. On the idrive the only thing you can alter is the so called ambient lighting from orange to white which only changes the led's in the pull handles, by the roof spots and in front of the gearlever - the white looks so shite so I leave it as orange
