Android 15 has a new dark mode switch with the same old problems

Android 15 has a new force dark mode switch, but it doesn't fix the real problem.

A new dark mode feature is coming to Android 15 that allows users to force more apps into swapping out those white backgrounds for darker ones. Android Authority details that the new feature will be available in the accessibility section of system settings, making it easier to find and use than the old developer mode switch. Phones that use gray backgrounds in place of true black ones, like the Google Pixel line, are worse for your eyes as shown by several studies over the past year.
