It would be unusual for YouTube to not follow the trend, so recently it also added
a dark background theme to all versions of its app. So, yes YouTube has a dark
mode. You can set it up easily on your desktop, Android, or iPhone, and this
article will show you how.
To restore light mode, just follow the same steps to turn dark mode off.
For your Android device, you�ll have to go into settings on the YouTube app. Here�s
what you need to do:
Enabling YouTube�s dark mode on your iPhone is about the same as Android. So, to
activate this theme, you should:
It emits less blue light which can interfere with your sleep
Better for night time use.
A dark background is easier on the eye and reduces eye fatigue.
Dark colors use less power, so YouTube in dark mode will be easier on your

The best thing that you can do is to switch between these two themes depending on
the environment and time of day. Dark theme is better for ill-lit rooms and
especially during nighttime. If you�re using YouTube outside in the sun, or if
you�re on it for a long time, it is better to opt for a light theme.
Perhaps one day, hopefully soon, YouTube would be smart enough to automatically
switch the theme for the user according to the environment and preset preferences?
Does anyone know someone who works at YouTube?
