Table of contents:
Dark mode has been the news of the year in terms of new operating systems. Android and Apple have presented their bets with a very clear objective: to help save battery life and give the device a different physical appearance. la beta of Android 10 Q allows you to apply this dark mode with just a button, and while some apps also switch to this mode automatically, others wait for be updated. This time it was the turn of Google Photos.
The truth is that the Google gallery application already has a dark mode. This is applied automatically in Android 10 Q, when the 'Dark Theme' is activated. However, in the other Android versions there was no possibility to activate it in any way In addition, for Android 10 users this new function will allow applying the dark mode in the Google Photos app even if we have disabled the option in the system.
As expected, the new interface does not apply some friendly tones with the OELD panel, it only adds some grayish touches to give it a touch more attractive to the application.
How to apply dark mode in Google Photos
Version 4.17.0.249919200 is getting this dark mode in Photos.Unfortunately We don't know if this is a server change or an app store download update as many users have upgraded to this version and they have not received dark mode. Therefore, it is likely that in a few days it will arrive automatically. This new mode can be activated by displaying the application menu and clicking on the 'Settings' option.
With Photos, there are already several applications that have received the new dark tone. Calendar, Keep, or Calculator have already been updated with these functions. We are still waiting for major ones like Gmail to receive it.
