How to get Force Dark Mode option for all apps on OnePlus phones

OnePlus is one of the biggest manufacturers of smartphones that has slowly and steadily made a name for itself in the past few years. The company is known for supporting most of its devices with the latest features and OS upgrades for up to three years from the time of release.

This often prompts many users to opt-in for beta updates in order to be at the forefront of new features and latest developments.

But if you are someone who is running the latest beta of OxygenOS then you might have noticed that the ‘force dark mode’ option is missing from developer options. Fear not, if you are looking to enable dark mode in unsupported apps then we have the perfect guide for you.

This guide will help you enable force dark mode option on both rooted and non-rooted devices.

We will be using DarQ tool by Quinny899 to force enable dark mode in selected apps on OnePlus devices. You can select your desired apps where you would like to force enable dark mode after installing this app/script on your device. Let’s dive into it.

Rooted users have a simple and easy process to follow in order to get DarQ running on their devices. Let’s get started.

Required: You will neeed OxygenOS 10 (Android 10) for this.
