This post will show you how to enable dark mode on Amazon, both on the app and on the website.
The dark mode is a popular user interface feature that has gained popularity in recent years. It is a display setting that switches the colour scheme of an app or website to a darker colour, typically with a black background and white or light-coloured text. The idea behind dark mode is to make it easier on the eyes when using devices in low-light conditions and to potentially reduce eye strain. Many apps and websites have implemented dark mode as a feature, and it has become a popular design trend. However, as of now, Amazon does not offer a dark mode feature on its platform.
How to Enable Dark Mode on Amazon App on Android
Unfortunately, the dark mode setting is not built-in into the Amazon app; therefore, to successfully enable the dark mode feature, it is necessary to access your device’s developer settings for Android.
- Launch the Settings app on your Android and select the About Phone option.
- Enable the developer option by tapping the Build number 7 times.
- Go to the Settings page and tap System Settings.
- Scroll down and tap the Developer options setting.
- Scroll down again and select the Override force-dark mode setting and switch the toggle next to it.
- Now go back to Settings → Display → Dark mode → Switch on the toggle. Or better still, slide down the notification pane and tap on dark mode if it is there.
- Launch the Amazon app now and the dark mode will be automatically applied.
