It may be possible. There is a thread here ā€œAllow users to select dark / light theme - howto / admins - Discourse Metaā€ [https://meta.discourse.org/t/allow-users-to-select-dark-light-theme/60857](https://meta.discourse.org/t/allow-users-to-select-dark-light-theme/60857) But needs Trading 212 admins to act. According to Googleā€™s research, colors displayed on the screen can affect the phoneā€™s **battery** draw, and a night mode (either **dark** gray or AMOLED **black** ) can go a long way to **save battery**. Some of Googleā€™s findings include: ā€¦ A **dark theme** can reduce **battery** usage, even with max brightness, by up to 63% on AMOLED displays ---

What happened to dark mode option? All I have is Theme Default and T212. And neither is dark. Same on desktop and mobile browser. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/trading212/original/3X/3/0/3059adf5cf85ec4fac58a5313b6f5529de8d322a.png) ---

At present, those are the only two available modes. If that changes in the future and we add dark mode, Iā€™ll let you know. ---

Hi All, Has the Dark Mode Theme on this community forum been removed? Suddenly I am back to a white theme, and I donā€™t see any theme options in the Accounts / Preferences or Interface settings any longer? Is anyone else experiencing this? Thanks ---

Dark mode has been unavailable since 2024 due to certain elements not functioning as expected. You may have continued to see it because you hadnā€™t logged out or cleared your browser cache, which can retain the previous theme. Weā€™ll let you know if it becomes available again. ---

So, youā€™re telling me, since 2024, My Laptop & iPhone have displayed the darker theme from the cache on those devices, and also anyone else that have replied and noticed this recently? Thatā€™s crazy, and this theme is blinding šŸ˜Ž Thanks for the response though. ---

It does feel like something changed recently. I never set dark mode (didnā€™t even know there was one). This morning, my phone was briefly in dark mode on the forums, but the text was dark. So I had to highlight stuff to read. After I switched to my desktop and made a post, the dark mode disappeared. ---

You can install a safari extension from the App Store which can enable dark mode on websites ---
