However, you can force the site to use a dark theme by enabling your <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/446198\/how-to-force-dark-mode-on-every-website-in-google-chrome\/\">Chrome, Edge, or Brave web browser\u2019s forced dark mode feature. That\u2019ll make Google Calendar use a dark interface in your web browser.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s still only a flag in these Chromium-based browsers, though. That means you have to enable the flag first. For example, in Chrome, you\u2019ll enter this code in your address bar:<\/p>\n<pre>chrome:\/\/flags<\/pre>\n<p>Then search for \u201cAuto Dark Mode for Web Contents\u201d and change its dropdown menu to \u201cEnabled.\u201d Then relaunch the browser, and Google Calendar will be converted into dark mode.<\/p>\n<p>If you use Firefox, or if you don\u2019t like how those browsers\u2019 built-in feature works, you can also use a browser extension like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/darkreader.org\/\">Dark Reader<\/a> to apply a dark theme to all websites, including Google Calendar. Each extension offers a different style of dark mode, so feel free to go with the one that you like.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s how you make your favorite calendar app use a dark interface on all your devices.
