Dark Mode has been gaining a lot of popularity lately because it puts less strain on users’ eyes and increases the battery life of smartphones. Over the last few months, we have seen a number of apps get the dark mode and now, the theme has finally been rolled out to Android Q too. Till now, we have seen system-wide Dark Theme on a few smartphones like Vivo V15 Pro, but those handsets had a customised version of Android running on them.

Although the Dark Mode is not available everywhere as of now, it can be enabled via some third party extensions too. Here, we have listed down how you can enable it on your smartphone. Take a look

How to get Dark Mode on iPhone

You may know it already if you have an iPhone, but we’ll state it anyway: iOS does not officially support Dark Mode. However, iOS 12 does have a smart colour inverter that offers almost the same effect. According to Apple it “reverses the colours of the display, except for images, media and some apps that use dark colour styles.”

The inverter works well with Apple’s own pre-installed apps as well as with apps that have support for dark mode. Here’s how you can turn it on:

  • Head to Settings.
  • Tap on General and then go to Accessibility.
  • Go to Display Accommodations and then select Invert Colours.
  • Switch it on.

We should also point out that a number of apps support Dark Mode on iOS including YouTube, Twitter, Facebook Messenger, Slack, and Microsoft Outlook. However, a system-wide Dark Mode is currently available unless you jailbreak your device, which we don’t recommend you to do.
