Thanks for the suggestion. Our development team has looked into this feature request. This will not be included in the M release. However, this may be considered for future releases.

I would like to say that I refused the Lollipop update precisely because it removed the black notification tray and dark system UI. It seems I will also be refusing the Marshmallow update now. Look at what OnePlus 2 did. Dark Themes aren't incompatible with Material Design, on the contrary.

Even Microsoft's failed Windows Phone has 2 theme sets (Light/Dark). Come on, Google. I thought Android was about freedom of options.

This is an unfortunate decision as I was looking forward to having a dark theme option again finally since it was removed after ICS. It seems like allowing for the user to customize their phone would be a useful feature, even if you hid it under Developer Options. Please reconsider it's inclusion!

I agree with @6. Plus, what are the reasons why you removed this feature? It's really useful for a lot of people.

I suffer from sensitive vision issues that require me to use dark themes. I really hope you consider implementing this as an accessibility feature, at the very least.

It's important for health reasons, as well as cosmetic reasons.

Just because you've never been in a wheelchair doesn't mean there shouldn't be any ramps.

An unfortunate decision, expected something at least for this version as an option in the menu developers, so that a future developers can develop supporting the two themes, and when released the new version of Android (After Marshmallow), have a greater amount of apps supported

This was a huge mistake, do you have a reason why you pulled the dark theme? Clearly there are people who would benefit from it, and to pull support without an explanation is very disappointing.

TO ALL WHO ARE COMMENTING ON THIS ISSUE THAT ARE NOT DEVELOPERS:

Please stop. Every time you comment you are sending out a mass email to every person who has starred the issue.

Please just star the issue in the top left if it affects you and leave the discussion to the actual developers. If you continue to post comments that don't directly relate to the discussion then you run the risk of people unsubscribing (unstarring) and the issue will not be paid as much attention.

Thank you!

Please guys don't take things we love. Bring black team back

I am visually impaired and depend on dark themes to read comfortably. Please be considerate of us who live with vision disabilities. We matter too. For myself I still enjoy reading, which is difficult to do with a glaring white background. It is not an issue of cosmetics for many of us. It is a necessity.

Dark mode will give people more customising options via stock.

Yeah, I'd really love to not have to install cyanogen again on my next phone...

Guys this is for developers, don't comment unless you have something contribute. (Yes I know this doesn't help but we get emails for anything you say)

Dark theme are very useful with Amoled screen, for usability and consomption.

Do it.

Темная тема, это то чего я больше всего ждал от android m, Please bring back the Dark Theme

Please stop spamming the comments of a bug report. Star the issue instead of saying "Me too". This has already been explained multiple times.

Issue 3012 has been merged into this issue.

For clarification, does labeling it as a defect mean that this will be addressed?

For the love of hell, shut the fuck up if you're not a developer or Google. I'm sick of getting notifications.

@24 It probably means they will consider it.

Seriously. Google has shown themselves to be the only technology company that takes itself seriously. They consistently produce new, useful, substantiated products. I don't see many other tech companies (or even companies in other fields) do as fantastic of a job as you guys do.

The innovative, open source philosophy. Don't see others doing this. You don't just steal old ideas and say "Look at this new thing that has been around for years that we invented today." You optimize the code line by line to see what it can do. That's dedication.

Every month, the Android security updates. Awesome! What a great way to protect against zero-days. Original ideas, insightful and fun products, I love it!

All the Nexus phones. Always fresh updates. Rarely do I see recycled ideas or bloat like I do from literally every other phone line.

Getting to know Android x.x.x. Perfect. Probably my favorite recurring thing ever.

Basically, what I'm trying to say, is thank you so much for producing actual innovation. Thank you for not trying to wall the garden with exclusives and lock-in! Thank you for trying to get market share from quality products with open source software.

Seriously, I love you guys. I hope you can tell from all the stars and how many of your stories hit the tech page! But even still, I wanted to let you know how absolutely grateful I am (and we all are)! Stick around, and keep up the fantastic work! We don't take it for granted, even if it might seem like it sometimes!

tl,dr; I LOVE YOU GOOGLE! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! <3

Comments on this issue should seriously be locked to prevent crap like #28. Outside developers can't do anything about this issue anyway.

(For those unaware, #28 is a modified version of a reddit comment about the news site Android Police)
