Apple added dark mode to the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch in 2019. When you turn on dark mode, dozens of apps will change colors. And depending on what kind of background you have on your lock and home screen, it might change colors too. You can even set dark mode to turn on and off automatically, based on the time of day.

You can also use this menu to schedule dark mode. This will let it come on and off automatically, based on the time of day.

Lastly, you can add a shortcut to your device's Control Center that lets you switch dark mode on and off with just a tap.
