Dark mode for web pages

If, in addition to the app’s user interface, you also wish to view websites in dark mode, you can enable it from Theme settings.

To view all websites in dark mode:

1. Go to Settings > Appearance & Theme > Theme > Website Appearance.
2. Choose between:
   • Light
   • Dark
   • Auto

Choosing Auto will display webpages in light mode when the user interface theme is set to Light and in dark mode when the theme is set to Dark. When the user interface theme is set to System, the website appearance will depend on whether you currently have light or dark mode enabled on the operating system’s level.

Even if you generally prefer to view all websites in either light or dark mode, you can also make an exception for specific websites.

To toggle light/dark mode on/off per website:

1. Go to the website.
2. Open the main Vivaldi menu.
3. Enable/disable Dark website.
