Samsung’s latest version of its heavily customised Android skin, One UI, has been steadily rolling out to more and more phones, and not only does it come with a major overhaul to what the UI feels and performs like, it also brings in tow a bunch of awesome features. One of these is the new Night Mode, which is effectively a dark mode for your phone. However, unless you’re using the new Galaxy S10, S10+, or S10e, you won’t find an option to schedule night mode on your smartphone. Fortunately, there’s a way, and that’s exactly what we’ll be discussing in this article:
If you’re running One UI on the Galaxy S9, S9+, Note 9, or any other Galaxy smartphone that has One UI support, here’s how you can set the Night Mode to automatically turn on and off:
If you’re using a Galaxy S10, S10+ or S10e, you can schedule Night Mode to turn on according to the time of day, or even set a custom schedule for enabling and disabling it. Here’s how you can do this:
- Here, tap on ‘Turn on as scheduled.’ You can now choose to either enable and disable Night Mode based on sunrise and sunset, or you can choose the ‘Custom schedule‘ option and choose the start and end times for Night Mode on your phone.
That was basically all you need to do to schedule Night Mode to automatically turn on or off on your One UI rocking smartphone. As of this writing, custom schedules are only available on the Galaxy S10 line up, but maybe Samsung will bring it to older Galaxy phones as well. Whenever that happens, we’ll definitely let you know so you can set custom schedules if you want. Until then, this is the best way to get Night Mode to automatically turn on and off.
