Amazon Dark Mode: Quick Answer
Amazon does not currently provide a complete built-in dark mode for its main shopping website or the Amazon Shopping app.
If you use Amazon on a PC or Mac, Night Eye can make the website dark in a supported browser. On an iPhone or iPad, you can also use Night Eye with the Amazon website in Safari.
Night Eye cannot change the native Amazon Shopping app. For the app, iPhone and Android offer display or accessibility workarounds, but these can affect product colors and are not the same as an Amazon-designed dark theme.
Use the option that matches where you use Amazon:
| Where you use Amazon | Native Amazon dark mode? | Best current option |
|---|---|---|
| Website on Windows or Mac | No complete setting | Night Eye in a supported browser |
| Website in Safari on iPhone or iPad | No complete setting | Night Eye for Safari |
| Shopping app on iPhone or iPad | No complete setting | Smart Invert as an optional accessibility workaround |
| Shopping app on Android 16 or newer | No app-designed setting | Try Expanded Dark Theme |
| Shopping app on older Android versions | No complete setting | Use Color inversion only if necessary |
| Prime Video | Separate dark interface | Use the appearance provided by Prime Video |
| Kindle app | Separate reading themes | Use Kindle's reading settings |
| Amazon app icon | Icon only | Changing the icon does not change the app interface |
Last checked: August 2026. Amazon can change its website and apps, so menu availability may differ by device, country, or software version.

Does Amazon Have Dark Mode?
As last tested in August 2026, Amazon's main shopping website and the tested iPhone and Android versions of the Amazon Shopping app did not provide a complete built-in dark-mode setting. Turning on your device's normal Dark theme may leave the Amazon website or Shopping app light.
Amazon has not published a clear explanation for the absence of a universal dark mode in its main shopping experience. Claims that the decision is based on sales, conversion rates, branding, or product-image accuracy are speculation unless Amazon confirms them.
Why use a darker Amazon website?
Amazon uses large white backgrounds across search results, product pages, and reviews. A darker interface may feel more comfortable when you shop in a dim room or when the rest of your browser uses a dark appearance.
Dark mode is a display preference, not a medical treatment. Choose the appearance that works best for your environment and adjust screen brightness when needed.
How to Make the Amazon Website Dark on PC or Mac
Amazon does not provide a complete dark-mode toggle for its main shopping website. Night Eye provides a browser-based dark mode for Amazon on supported browsers, converting the bright website interface into a darker appearance while keeping product images and shopping content visible.
- Install Night Eye. Choose your browser using the installer below.
- Open Amazon. Visit the Amazon website for your country. If the page was already open during installation, refresh the tab once.
- Open Night Eye. Select the Night Eye icon beside the address bar. If you do not see it, open the browser's extensions menu and pin Night Eye.
- Use Dark Mode. Night Eye starts in Dark Mode on supported pages. Open its panel if you want to confirm the mode or adjust the appearance.
You do not need to sign in to Amazon or change an Amazon account setting.
Amazon changes its website frequently. If a price, button, product image, or checkout element looks incorrect, switch the page to Normal Mode before completing the purchase and report the specific page to Night Eye support.
Amazon Dark Mode in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari
Night Eye is available for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, and other major browsers. It includes controls for brightness, contrast, warmth, and dimming. You can also schedule Dark Mode or create settings for individual websites and pages.
Start with the default settings, then make small adjustments only if needed. For a complete walkthrough, see How to Start Using Night Eye. You can also review Night Eye's customization features, visit the Help Center, or contact support.
Choose your browser below to install Night Eye:
Install Night Eye and try Amazon in dark mode in your browser.
Amazon Light Mode vs Dark Mode Examples
Use the sliders below to compare Amazon's standard light pages with examples converted by Night Eye. The screenshots show product, home, and review pages; Amazon's current layout may differ because the website changes over time.
Before completing a purchase, switch to Normal Mode if any price, option, image, button, or checkout field is unclear.

Does the Amazon Shopping App Have Dark Mode?
As last tested in August 2026, the main Amazon Shopping app did not provide a complete built-in dark-mode setting on the tested iPhone and Android versions.
Changing your phone to its normal system Dark theme may leave the Amazon app light. iPhone and Android provide accessibility or expanded-theme options that can create a darker appearance, but these are device-level workarounds rather than an Amazon-designed dark mode.
Night Eye works with the Amazon website in supported browsers. It does not change the native Amazon Shopping app.
Amazon Website Dark Mode in Safari on iPhone and iPad
Night Eye is available as a Safari extension for iPhone and iPad. This lets you use a darker Amazon website without applying a screen-wide color inversion.
- Install Night Eye for Safari on your iPhone or iPad.
- Open Settings > Apps > Safari > Extensions.
- Select Dark Mode - Night Eye and turn on Allow Extension.
- Allow Night Eye to run on Amazon, or choose Allow for all websites if that option appears.
- Open the Amazon website in Safari. Use Night Eye's panel if you want to change the mode or adjust the appearance.
This method changes the Amazon website, not the Amazon Shopping app. See the Safari dark mode guide for complete setup instructions.
Amazon App Dark Mode on iPhone and iPad
The Amazon Shopping app does not currently provide a complete native dark-mode control. If you need a darker app view, Smart Invert is an optional iPhone and iPad accessibility workaround.
Apple's documented global route is:
- Open Settings.
- Select Accessibility.
- Select Display & Text Size.
- Turn on Smart Invert.
Smart Invert attempts to leave images and media unchanged, but Amazon icons, interface colors, or product content may still appear differently. Turn it off when checking color-sensitive products.
Apple documents the feature in its Invert Colors guide. For a browser-based alternative, open the Amazon website in Safari and use Night Eye for Safari.
Amazon App Dark Mode on Android
As last tested in August 2026, the Amazon Shopping app did not provide its own complete dark-mode switch on the tested Android version.
First, turn on your phone's normal Dark theme and reopen Amazon:
Settings > Accessibility > Color and motion > Dark theme
On Android 16 and newer devices that provide the expanded option, try:
Settings > Accessibility > Color and motion > Dark theme > Expanded
Expanded Dark Theme can darken apps that do not provide their own dark interface, but support varies. It can also alter images, colors, or text legibility.
If Expanded Dark Theme is unavailable or leaves Amazon light, Color inversion is a broader accessibility fallback:
Settings > Accessibility > Color and motion > Color inversion > Use color inversion
Color inversion affects the whole screen, including media. Turn it off before choosing a product where exact color matters. Menu names can vary by device manufacturer. Google provides current details in its Dark theme and color inversion guide.
Advanced note: Developer Options are experimental and are not recommended for ordinary shoppers.
Amazon Dark Mode Not Working? Try These Fixes
- Confirm where you are using Amazon. Check whether you are on the Amazon website or inside the native Shopping app.
- Remember the product boundary. Night Eye changes the website in supported browsers; it does not change the native Amazon app.
- Check the extension. On desktop, confirm that Night Eye is installed and enabled.
- Check Amazon's Night Eye setting. Make sure the website or current page is not set to Normal Mode.
- Reload the tab. Refresh Amazon after installing or enabling Night Eye.
- Test more than one page. Check a product page, search-results page, and account page separately.
- Temporarily disable other appearance extensions. Two extensions can apply conflicting changes to the same page.
- Update Night Eye and your browser. Then close and reopen the affected Amazon tab.
- Use Normal Mode when something is unclear. Do this before relying on a price, button, product image, option, or checkout field.
- Report the exact page. Send the specific Amazon URL to Night Eye support.
- Check the mobile workaround. Confirm whether you enabled Smart Invert, Expanded Dark Theme, or Color inversion.
- Restore normal colors when needed. Turn inversion or the expanded Android option off before evaluating exact product colors.
How to Turn Amazon Dark Mode Off
Amazon website: Open Night Eye and switch the current website to Normal Mode, or disable Night Eye for Amazon.
Amazon app on iPhone or iPad: Go to Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size and turn off Smart Invert.
Amazon app on Android: Return Dark theme from Expanded to Standard, turn Dark theme off, or turn off Color inversion, depending on the option you enabled.
