How to Enable Dark Mode in Google Docs - The Full Guide (Updated) To enable Dark Mode in Google Docs, the method depends on your device: On mobile (Android or iOS), open the Google Docs app, go to Menu to Settings to Theme, and select "Dark." Docs will instantly switch to a dark background for easier viewing, especially at night. On desktop, Google Docs doesn’t have a built-in dark mode, but you can use browser extensions like “Dark Mode Google Docs” or “Dark Reader” from the Chrome Web Store. Install the extension, activate it, and your Docs interface will appear in dark mode. Alternatively, in Chrome, you can enable “Force Dark Mode for Web Contents” in chrome://flags for a system-wide effect. Try dark mode for a more comfortable and focused writing experience.
