Dark Wallpapers

About these wallpapers

Dark wallpapers run from near-black to deep navy, charcoal and moody night scenes. If you're after a black wallpaper, a dark picture with a little soft light in it often looks richer on a phone than a flat black screen.

A dark background is gentle on the eyes at night and pairs naturally with Dark Mode. The clock, widgets and white text stand out clearly, and bright app icons pop against it.

For the lock screen, pick one with a bit of light near the middle so it doesn't look like the screen is off. For the home screen, a plainer, darker picture lets your icons do the talking.
