Microsoft Unveils New Dark Mode for Office Apps With iOS 13

Microsoft has unveiled a new dark mode that launches today with Outlook for iOS and Office.com and will expand to the Microsoft 365 suite of apps with the launch of iOS 13.

Whether you want to reduce eye strain, improve battery life, or it just has aesthetic appeal, Dark Mode exemplifies our ability to craft simple and powerful Microsoft 365 experiences that give you choice and flexibility. Customer choice was why we first brought a darker UI theme to desktop apps in Office 2010, and we’ve brought it to more Microsoft experiences ever since due to its popularity.
A cross-company design collaboration propels us to seamlessly bring Dark Mode to the broader M365 product suite, and today marks the initial rollout of Dark Mode on Outlook for iOS and Android, as well as Office.com! The upcoming launch of iOS 13 will then extend this rollout to Word, Excel, OneNote, PowerPoint, SharePoint, OneDrive, Planner, and To-Do on mobile.

Microsoft says Dark Mode may save battery life when on the go. Following the launch of iOS 13 and Android 10, Outlook will automatically switch to Dark Mode depending on the preference you set.

Dark Mode comes to Word, Excel, and PowerPoint with the launch of iOS 13; as well as SharePoint, OneDrive, OneNote, Planner, and To-Do. Dark Mode for Planner and OneDrive on the web are coming as well.
