How to turn on system-wide Dark Theme on Android 10

Android 10 is packed with many new features and capabilities including enhanced rights control, Smart Replay and WiFi network authentication information sharing via QR codes. Another new feature, also introduced for iOS 13, is a system-wide Dark Theme. The following article will show you how to turn on system-wide Dark Theme on Android 10.

Why use Dark Theme?

Dark Mode is a popular trend, both on desktop operating systems such as Windows 10, applications like Slack and mobile devices. There are several reasons why you want to use Dark Theme on your Android device. First of all, the eyes can be much easier to read everything, especially in dark environments. There is nothing more uncomfortable when the eyes are faced with a bright white light at night.

Moreover, if the smartphone has an OLED display, using Dark Mode can lead to a significant increase in battery life. The reason for this is explained by the fact that OLED displays turn off the pixels to display black, so they will not have to use battery power for some parts of the screen.
