How to Use Dark Mode on Your iPhone or iPad
Rather than show black text on a blinding white background, Dark Mode flips the color palette to make your iPhone easier on the eyes. This is particularly beneficial when using your iPhone in a dark environment, but some people use Dark Mode all the time because they prefer how it looks. It can even boost your battery life.
If you’re brand-new to using Dark Mode on your iPhone, we’ll show you exactly what it does and how to turn it on and off. We’ll even show you how to schedule Dark Mode to automatically enable it when the sun goes down.
Dark Mode changes the color scheme on your iPhone to prioritize darker colors, making the screen easier to look at in low-light environments. This typically means a black background with white text, rather than the opposite.
When you enable Dark Mode on your iPhone, the color palette changes for Settings, every Apple app, and even a wide range of third-party apps. You can also choose to make your Home Screen wallpaper switch to a darker palette as well.
