Dark Mode has become a popular feature on modern smartphones. It reduces eye strain, saves battery life on OLED screens, and gives your phone a modern, sleek look. Motorola devices running Hello UI fully support Dark Mode, and it can be applied system-wide or to specific apps.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to enable, schedule, and customize Dark Mode on your Motorola phone with Hello UI.
Dark Mode changes the phone’s interface from a light theme to a darker theme, affecting:
System menus
Notifications
Quick settings
Supported apps like Gmail, Chrome, and Google Messages
Benefits include:
Reduced eye strain during night use
Lower battery consumption on OLED/AMOLED screens
Modern aesthetic for the device interface
Follow these steps to enable Dark Mode:
Open Settings on your Motorola device.
Tap Display.
Look for Dark Theme / Dark Mode and tap to enable it.
Once activated, your system interface and supported apps will immediately switch to dark colors.
💡 Tip: Dark Mode works best on OLED/AMOLED screens for maximum battery savings.
You can set Dark Mode to turn on automatically:
Go to Settings → Display → Dark Theme.
Tap Schedule.
Choose Sunset to Sunrise to follow local sunset times, or Custom schedule to pick your own start and end times.
Save changes.
This ensures automatic night-friendly display without manual intervention.
Some apps allow you to enable Dark Mode independently:
Open the app (e.g., Gmail, Google Chrome).
Go to Settings → Theme / Appearance.
Select Dark or System Default.
This is useful if you prefer system light mode but want Dark Mode in certain apps.
You can quickly switch Dark Mode on or off:
Swipe down from the top of the screen to access Quick Settings.
Look for the Dark Mode / Dark Theme icon.
Tap it to toggle between dark and light themes instantly.
💡 Pro Tip: Drag the icon to the main Quick Settings panel for faster access.
Some Motorola devices allow additional Dark Mode tweaks:
Adaptive Dark Mode: Adjusts automatically based on ambient light or app usage.
Wallpaper Compatibility: Some wallpapers may appear darker automatically when Dark Mode is on.
Battery Optimization: Using Dark Mode reduces battery usage on OLED displays by lowering screen brightness in dark areas.
