Dark mode apps can prolong the battery life of your smartphone. Google has confirmed that using dark mode on OLED screens has been a huge help for battery life. For example, at 50% brightness, the Dark Mode interface in the YouTube app saves about 15% screen energy compared to a flat white background. Want to get more out of Google apps at work or school?

Google is testing a new version of its search engine that’s entirely black.

It’s a massive change to a website that’s been almost totally white since it launched in 1997.

In the 24 years since, Google has changed in many ways – except or colour.

Now Google appears to be following the trend of many websites and apps that offer a Dark Mode.

Websites with black themes are often easier to view in dark settings – like at night or first thing in the morning.

Now The Verge and 9to5Google have revealed how Google is trialling such a redesign.

Some users are reporting seeing the new black design on desktop when their system settings on macOS are turned to Dark Mode.

Sadly, the test isn’t available to everyone.

Even if you have Dark Mode activated on a MacBook, you might not see the new website.

It’s unclear how Google is choosing to roll out the trial – so it’s just bad luck if you can’t see it.

The good news is that if the trial is successful, Google will almost certainly roll the new look out to the wider world.
