In an effort to prolong battery life and reduce user eye fatigue, Google announced that it would be forcing app developers who use their platforms to include dark mode and darkened themes as a standard feature. Although progress in this area is still moving along slowly, Google has stepped in and made the first move announcing a full dark theme is coming to Chrome in the very near future.
As well as this new fully dark theme, Google has just released a range of fully supported colour themes for Chrome. If you’ve been using Chrome for some time, you’re probably already using custom themes, however, Chrome’s official themes are certainly worth checking out and come in fourteen different colours. Just Black, Slate, Oceanic, Ultra Violet, Classic Blue, Banana, Black & White, Honeysuckle, Rose, Serenity, Sea Foam, Marsala, High Contrast Colourful, and Pretty in Pink.
Even though all of the above-listed themes do cover a large portion of Google Chrome's interface, they don’t yet cover the entirety of the browser screen like Settings, about:flags, etc will all retain their current default white colour configuration. Seeing as you probably spend less than 1% of your time using these pages, it probably won’t be much of an issue.
