How do I activate the dark mode on my smartphone?
The dark mode on a phone helps optimize your visual comfort. To activate it, the steps may vary slightly depending on the model and operating system you are using.
On Android:
- Access the settings of your phone.
- Look for the "Display" or "Screen" option.
- Find the "Theme" or "Dark Mode" option.
- Select "Dark Mode" to activate it.
In some cases, you can also quickly access dark mode by swiping down from the top of the screen to open the quick settings panel, then looking for the "Dark Mode" or "Theme" option.
On iOS (iPhone):
- Access the settings of your iPhone.
- Tap on "Display & Brightness."
- Under the "Appearance" option, choose "Dark" to activate dark mode.
Just like on Android, on iOS, you can also quickly access dark mode by opening Control Center (by swiping down from the top right corner on recent models) and tapping on the "Brightness" or "Appearance" icon and selecting dark mode.
Once dark mode is activated, the colors of your phone's user interface will be darkened, which can reduce eye strain, extend battery life on certain OLED screens, and offer a different visual experience.
