But when you\u2019re trying to read at night, the sharp white background light can be a problem for your eyes. Relieve your eyes using dark mode on Kindle.<\/p>\n<p>The Kindle e-reader used to have an accessibility setting called Inverted Mode that inverted the background and text color. Now, Amazon provides a quick toggle for the feature that instantly lets you switch between light mode and dark mode. This will take care of the blinding white light that the E-ink screen emits during screen refreshes.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, dark mode is supported on the Kindle Paperwhite 4 (2018), Oasis 2 (2017), and higher. If you don\u2019t see the feature yet, make sure that you are connected to Wi-Fi and that your Kindle is updated to version\u00a05.12.4 or higher. If you don\u2019t see the update, try manually updating your Kindle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Manually Update Your Kindle<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Enabling dark mode on Kindle is quite easy.
