Dark mode has been a great addition to apps. Nowadays, the dark mode is available system-wide on every device. Apps now also have dark themes by default. YouTube is one of them where dark mode is the most useful. I’ve compiled a YouTube dark mode guide that will help you enable the dark theme for YouTube on any platform (Android, iOS, iPadOS, and Web). I’ll keep it short and to the point.
