Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are getting a dark theme on Android

Remember dark themes? There was a time where it felt like we were writing about dark themes being added to new apps every day. Android 10 brought a system-wide dark theme and many apps implemented it pretty quickly. Google Drive has a dark theme, but the accompanying Docs, Sheets, and Slides don’t. That appears to be finally changing.

A teardown of the three Google editing apps by 9to5Google reveals introductory prompts for a dark theme. Assets for dark themes were added to Docs, Sheets, and Slide a few weeks ago, but it’s now looking like the apps are getting ready to use them. The dark theme applies to the document browser and the actual editor view in Docs and Sheets (changing the background color is already a common function in Slides).

Google calls the dark theme in the document editor “dark mode canvas.” Users can quickly preview how things look in the light theme from the menu. We were able to partially enable the dark theme in the document browser view for Docs, Sheets, and Slides (gallery above). Twitter user and developer Alessandro Paluzzi was able to enable the dark theme in the document editor for Docs (below) and Sheets.

The dark theme for Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides is in version 1.20.242.2, but it’s not visible yet. This is likely coming in a server-side switch. Anyone who does late-night writing and editing is about to be very happy.
