How to Enable Salesforce Dark Mode

Updated
May 28, 2026

Looking for a way to enable Dark Mode in Salesforce? We’ve got you covered — keep on reading to learn how to switch to a darker color scheme in Salesforce and reduce eye strain.

What is Salesforce Dark Mode?

Salesforce Dark Mode is a feature that allows you to change the color scheme of the Salesforce interface to darker colors. This can help reduce eye strain and make it easier to work in low-light environments.

Benefits of Salesforce Dark Mode

Using Salesforce Dark Mode can help you:

  • Reduce eye strain – Darker colors are easier on the eyes compared to brighter colors, so using Dark Mode can help reduce eye strain.
  • Improve sleep – Since Dark Mode emits significantly less harsh blue light compared to the default color scheme, it has a lesser chance of interfering with your sleep.
  • Increase battery life – If you work on a laptop, using Dark Mode can help increase battery life and give you that extra bit of power you need to finish the workday without needing a charger.
Improve Salesforce data hygiene, increase pipeline visibility, and boost forecast accuracy.

How to enable Salesforce Dark Mode?

In the past, Salesforce provided a built-in way of enabling Dark Mode through the Lightning extension. Unfortunately, that option is no longer available.

But — worry not! There are still different ways to add Dark Mode to Salesforce. Here’s how to do it:

Use a Chrome extension

There are a few unofficial Chrome extensions you can use to enable Dark Mode in Salesforce.

The first one is Salesforce Dark Theme. You can use it across:

  • Salesforce Classic and Lightning
  • Trailhead
  • Salesforce knowledge articles and discussion forums
