It turns out that in the beta version of Android 14, which was released back in January, there is a hidden setting that allows you to "make all apps dark".
This means that users have the option to force all apps into dark mode, even those that do not support it. This new option can be useful for users who prefer to use dark mode. It usually creates less strain on the eyes than the traditional light mode.
This new option is located in the "Settings" menu -> "System" -> "Developer options". Google uses the following description for it:
"Applies to apps without their own dark theme. Some apps may have display issues, such as inverted colors".
It's similar to the existing developer option that also applies dark theme to all apps, but developers can opt out of it. There is also the option to invert colors in accessibility settings, but this often leads to strange results.
It seems that the new setting is intended for users, not developers, and it provides better results, although still not perfect.
This feature is not available in the latest beta version of Android 15, but it is likely to appear in a future release. Perhaps it will be announced during Google I/O 2024, scheduled for May 14.
