What you need to know about dark mode
Dark mode is a concept that is widely used in the industry to describe themes with dark and black elements, on which the content stands out.
Dark themes are popular among those who work with video and photography, designers, etc. Judging by Final Cut and others, the Apple program, the company thoroughly decided to switch to dark mode.
Professionals prefer to use the dark mode, as it reduces eye strain, especially at night.
On macOS Mojave 10.14 Apple added a full-fledged dark mode not only for the main interface, but also for most standard programs: Photos, Notes, Mail, Messages, Calendar, etc. Moreover, the company provided a dark mode API so that developers could add its support to their programs.
There is no full-fledged dark mode in iOS yet.
IOS 11 introduces a new feature of Universalaccess - Smart inversion, which simulates a dark mode, but its work leaves much to be desired. In iOS 12, the function was not improved in any way or dark mode was added.
Dark mode +OLED-display
We have no doubt that someday dark mode will be added in iOS, since it will be of great benefit on models with an OLED display, like the iPhone X and the future 2018 line.
Most likely this will happen with iOS 13 or iOS 14 innext or 2020. By this time, all new iPhone models will probably be with OLED displays. Such displays do not require a backlight, which consumes a lot of energy, as on LCD displays.

On OLED panels, each pixel is individually highlighted. If the pixel is black, it does not consume energy. In this regard, OLED displays greatly save battery power when the screen is black.
The App Store even has a list with third-party iOS apps that have a dark mode. It can also be viewed through a web browser.
