Google Chrome Dark Mode Is Coming to Windows 10 Soon

An increasing number of websites and apps are obtaining dark modes. And normally, they simply do this for the sake of aesthetics, but also due to power-saving consideration. After having added eye-saving dark modes to a range of Android apps, Google has confirmed that it is doing the same for Windows 10 in its Chrome browser.

Although now you don’t know the particular time frame in which you expect to see the dark mode in Google Chrome for Windows 10, a developer of this company has revealed that this feature is in progress. Reportedly, the new development comes weeks after Google was found preparing a dark theme for the Chrome browser for macOS Mojave.

Chrome Dark Theme Windows 10

On Reddit, one user said that Google’s design direction is painful and White hurts his eyes. In response to a question about whether Google will cater to persons who suffer from visual stress, Peter Kasting, Senior Chrome Engineer and a member of the Chromium team at Google, has revealed the ongoing development around the native dark mode support for desktops.

And he said that the native dark mode support is in progress and Google suggested using a dark theme. With native dark mode support, the browser is able to bring a comfortable Web browsing experience on Windows machines, especially in low lighting conditions.

Kasting is the one who has previously expressed an interest in Chrome’s dark mode, and he had submitted a bug report in May last year referring to its absence. And he said:

“Windows 10 allows users to set their apps to ‘light’ or ‘dark’ mode. Chrome should respect this. The most obvious hack is to use the default incognito color scheme in normal mode (as well as incognito) if the system is in dark mode. Long term, we should perhaps have a better answer. This has been a popular external request for some time.”

This move has pushed Google to start developing native dark mode in Google Chrome for Windows 10 desktops. However, Kasting hasn’t revealed any details about a similar experience in progress for mobile devices. And he responded that different teams are developing mobile the platforms.
