Gmail Is Finally Getting Dark Mode On Android And iOS

Earlier this year Google announced that a system-wide dark theme would be arriving for Android 10 and Pie.

Some apps have already began receiving the feature – including Google Pay, Google Fit and Files by Google.

Now it looks like your inbox will be getting the dark treatment.
