Google Chrome has a dark mode for PC and smartphone users, but it’s not as easy as just clicking a button. Unlike some browsers, you have to follow some guidelines to see your content in the dark theme.

Also, the dark mode on Chrome is different for each platform. That’s why we have a perfect guide for our fellow readers. In this post, we’ve explained how you can get a dark mode for Windows, macOS, Android, and IOS.

Before getting to the guidelines, let’s first check why Chrome Dark Mode is a necessity.
