Mefglobalforum.org – Enabling dark mode on iPhone is crucial, especially for those who frequently check their phone in low light conditions. While the high-resolution displays on newer iPhone models, such as the iPhone 14 Pro, are great in bright environments, they can be harsh on the eyes in the dark and lead to eye strain.
Reducing the brightness on your iPhone can alleviate the strain on your eyes caused by bright screens, but a white theme can still be too intense in low light conditions. Enabling dark mode on iPhone is a better solution as it changes the theme to primarily dark, reducing the effects of bright, white, and blue light, making it more comfortable to use in low light settings.

Fortunately, it is easy to do and in this guide, we will walk you through the process. Additionally, iPhones have the capability to automatically switch between dark and light mode based on the time of day, we will also show you how to enable this feature.
Without further ado, here’s how to enable dark mode on iPhone.
