I wonder if any of the Google apps will support a dark mode. Maps / Gmail are harder to use with all of the white

Neither Maps or Gmail is using Dark Mode for me on the Pixel I updated this morning. Hopefully it'll be added in an update.

Nor Hangouts or Play Store. Photos, Phone, Fit, Settings and notifications do. Happy to see movement and hopefully the stragglers get on board soon.

Both apps' dark modes are shown in screenshots on the official Android 10 page.

Probably not far off.

Many Google apps already do. It was weird during the Android 10 Beta because Google was releasing apps with partial support for Dark mode which made them hard to use. You'd sometimes get dark grey text on black background, for instance.

Almost like it was a beta... :P
