Hi, of course,
Dark Mode is a supplemental mode that's used to display mostly dark surfaces on the UI, instead of white. The design reduces the light emitted by device screens while maintaining the minimum color contrast ratios required for readability.

Additionally, it conserves battery power, thereby enabling device usage for longer periods without charging.
