Apple just made dark mode an official feature<\/span> of the iPhone and iPad with the announcement of iOS 13<\/a> at WWDC<\/span>. The appeal of using a dark mode, be it system-wide or in specific apps, is two-fold: It saves battery life<\/span>, and viewing dark interfaces in dimly lit environments is easier on your eyes<\/span>.<\/p>\n

While we wait for Apple to release iOS 13<\/span> later this year, we decided to look for some iPhone and iPad apps that offer a dark mode on their own. Below are a few of the apps we found and along with instructions detailing how to enable dark mode for each one. <\/p>\n

Fantastical 2<\/h2>\n

This calendar app<\/a> integrates iCloud calendar and reminders into one, easy to read interface. It also comes with a dark mode. When viewing the main screen, tap on the gear icon then slide the toggle next to Light Theme<\/strong> to the Off<\/em> position.<\/p>\n

It’s not a completely dark theme, but every bit helps.<\/p>\n

Twitter<\/h2>\n

Twitter’s<\/a> dark mode looks pretty darn good. Turn it on by going into the Settings section of the app, then selecting Display and sound<\/strong> and turning on Dark Mode<\/strong>. There’s also an option to for dark mode to automatically turn on at night, and then off again in the morning. <\/p>\n

Twitter can auto-enable dark mode, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Reddit<\/h2>\n

To enable Reddit’s<\/a> dark mode, slide out the menu from the left side of the screen, tap Settings<\/strong> then turn Night mode<\/strong> on. You can change just how dark the theme is by selecting Night theme<\/strong> and selecting your personal preference.<\/p>\n

Do you use the official Reddit app? You’ll want to use its dark mode, then.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Feedly<\/h2>\n

Feedly’s<\/a> dark mode takes two taps to enable. Slide out the menu by tapping on the menu button in the bottom left corner, then select Night Mode<\/strong>. Easy, right?<\/p>\n

Facebook Messenger<\/h2>\n

Facebook officially rolled out dark mode<\/span> for Messenger<\/a> a while back. You can now find the toggle with a tap on your profile avatar when viewing a list of your conversations. Night mode should be the first option in settings.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Turning on Dark Mode takes a couple of taps and looks so much better.\u00a0<\/p>\n

iA Writer<\/h2>\n

iA Writer<\/a> is a handy app for writing and jotting notes. You can find its dark mode by selecting the gear icon when viewing your library, then enabling Dark appearance<\/strong>. You can even turn the app’s icon dark if you want.<\/p>\n

<\/span>\"ia-writer-dark-mode\"<\/span><\/span>
<\/p>\n

iA Writer even lets you change the app icon to match the dark theme.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Apple Books<\/h2>\n

Reading a book on a light background at night is hard on your eyes, so Apple’s Books<\/a> app has a few different color options — including a dark mode. When reading a book, tap on the “Aa” icon, then selecting the color to the far right. You can also adjust the brightness, or enable auto-night theme if you’d rather let your iPhone or iPad handle it for you. <\/p>\n

Dark mode in the Apple Books app is only a couple of taps away.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kindle<\/h2>\n

Naturally, the Kindle<\/a> app has a similar feature. When reading a book, tap on the screen to display the various buttons. Select the “Aa” button, then Black<\/strong> at the bottom of the screen. <\/p>\n

Do yourself a favor while you read and enable the Kindle app’s dark mode.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Slack<\/h2>\n

Slack<\/a> rolled out its dark mode a while back, and I’ve yet to turn it off. Enable dark mode with a tap on the three-dot icon in the top-right corner, then select Settings<\/strong>. Scroll down until you find Dark Mode<\/strong> and slide the toggle to the On<\/em> position. The change affects all of your Slack workspaces, not just the one you are currently in. <\/p>\n

Slack’s Dark Mode looks good.\u00a0<\/p>\n
