Many people prefer dark mode these days because it flips the color palette, making most of an app's interface dark instead of light. This can reduce eye strain, especially at the beginning and end of the day. Like many popular apps, Zoom now has the option to enable dark mode.
To use dark mode in Zoom, you need to use an updated version of the app. On Windows you'll need Zoom version 5.10.0 or higher; on the Mac, Zoom must be version 4.6.0 or higher. To make sure you're using the correct version, click your account icon in the top right, then choose Check Updates.
To enable dark mode on the Zoom mobile app, you need version 5.2.0 or higher for the Android or iOS version of Zoom.
How to enable dark mode for Zoom on your computer:
Launch the Zoom app on your computer.
Click the profile picture at the top right and then Settings.
On the General tab of the Settings window, you will find the Theme section.
Click Dark to enable dark mode immediately, or click Use System Setting to force Zoom to always automatically use the light or dark mode that your operating system is set to.
How to enable dark mode for Zoom on mobile:
The mobile app will automatically use the theme your Android or iPhone is using - there is no way to override this setting in the app itself. Make sure to enable and use dark mode on your iPhone or use dark mode on your Android device to put Zoom into dark mode.
