Dark Mode is an option that helps you quickly turn the screen to dark. YouTube explains it, “Dark theme allows you to tone down your screen’s glare and experience YouTube with a dark background.” Dark mode or dark theme is also known to help in reducing power consumption on smartphones.
On YouTube, dark mode is available for desktop apps, Android devices, iPhones, and iPad. YouTube’s dark mode feature works similarly to other apps. You have the option to switch between dark and light theme anytime you want from the YouTube app.
