Learn How To Activate iOS 11 Dark Mode


Apart from all the major iOS 11 features and changes, there are some hidden and minor features as well. In this release, Apple has included a feature named Smart Invert Colors, which is the closest you can get while looking for an iOS 11 dark mode.

How does Smart Invert Colors feature work as Dark Mode?

It’s worth noting that a true iOS 11 dark mode is still absent and Smart Invert Colors features can satisfy your needs until a full-fledged feature is released. iOS already had a feature named Invert Colors to make things easier for users with vision impairments.
As the name suggests, the Smart Invert Colors feature is smart enough to spare pictures, icons, and other graphics; it doesn’t perform color inversion for those elements. As a result, one gets a dark user interface but the remaining content is just the same. See how iOS 11 dark mode changes the elements.
However, when it comes to apps like web browsers, WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, Smart Invert Colors works just like Classic Invert.

How to activate iOS 11 Dark Mode?

In case you wish to give your strained eyes a little relief, you can perform a few simple steps and use this iOS 11 trick. To do so, follow the subsequent steps:
1. After making sure that your iPhone or iPad is running the latest iOS 11, navigate to Settings > General > Accessibility > Display Accommodations.

3. On the new screen, to activate iOS 11 Dark Mode, tap on the Smart Invert option to move the slider. This will instantly change your iPhone or iPad display to a dark theme.

As said above, iOS 11 Night Mode isn’t a perfect feature as almost no third-party app supports this feature. If making calls, reading text, using Apple Music, and browsing Photos, things will be fine with Smart Invert. However, you won’t be able to get a good experience while browsing the web or using apps like Instagram. Still, in my opinion, something is better than nothing; I expect to see a full-fledged dark mode in future iOS updates as well.

Ambode’s Michael Jackson syndrome

GOVERNOR Akinwunmi Ambode’s urban renewal policy is fundamentally flawed. For one, it strives to recast a Nigerian city in Parisian or Washingtonian mold. Secondly, it fails to realise that Lagos does not have to look like Paris, New York or Washington DC to be a beautiful, functional and livable city. A city is not just an agglomeration of buildings, streets and public spaces cobbled together by architectural, engineering and urban planning standards. A city captures, encapsulates and expresses the totality of a people’s way of life. Not surprisingly, Western European cities have a similar character, a character that is different from (for example) Asian cities.
