Google has stated that they will be adding support for Windows 10 Dark Mode in an upcoming version of the Chrome browser.

Windows 10 allows you to set a system wide Light or Dark mode that causes all supported apps to automatically switch to the desired theme. This means that if a user configures Windows 10 to use the Dark mode, apps that offer a dark theme will automatically switch to it.

In a Chromium bug report created in May 2018, Chrome developer Peter Kasting stated that Chrome should respect Windows 10's light or dark mode setting.

"Windows 10 allows users to set their apps to "light" or "dark" mode. Chrome should respect this. The most obvious hack is to use the default incognito color scheme in normal mode (as well as incognito) if the system is in dark mode. Long-term, we should perhaps have a better answer. This has been a popular external request for some time."

In response to complaints in a Reddit thread regarding the lack of dark mode support, Kasting recently suggested that users install a Dark theme until support is finished being added to the desktop browser. Unfortunately, for mobile Chrome users who do not have the ability to add themes and extensions, Kasting did not have any insight as to when a dark mode would be added.

Dark mode for macOS already in development

Development to add support for macOS Dark Mode has already started as seen in this bug report created in June 2018.

Chrome dark mode for macOS

Strangely, the addition of dark mode support for macOS was given a higher priority of 1, while Windows 10 support was given a lower priority of 2. This is strange considering Chrome is utilized more on Windows than a Mac. Furthermore, Windows 10 added Dark Mode support in 2016, while macOS received it late last year in macOS Mojave.
