    Just found out I can dark mode google maps for use in android auto. So happy. My stupid car has a huge touchscreen and I like have google maps for nav but I hated the giant white screen blasting in my face every single time I drive even at night. Now it’s night mode always all the time. Fuck yeah.

        Mine used to have that option but disappeared from my menu recently which sucks. My phone is always dark mode including maps. Wish I knew why my car won’t do dark mode unless it’s actually dark out because I hate it.

              i open apps on my phone (galaxy s21?) then click my google profile thing in the top right. In there is a settings option with a gear icon near the bottom. click that, in there is a setting called “theme” and you just set that to “always dark”.

                I appreciate the help but I should’ve been more explicit. I’ve done that on my phone, and my phone is always dark mode but my android auto forces light mode unless it’s actually dark outside or in under a bridge or something.
