The YouTube Dark Theme settings are device-specific; enabling it on one device won&#39;t turn it on across all of your other devices. If you want YouTube&#39;s dark mode on your smartphone, tablet, and computer, you need to enable it on each device.

The screen immediately changes to the dark theme. Your YouTube Dark Theme preferences remain unique to each browser you use on your computer. For example, if you enable the dark mode in Firefox, it remains disabled in Chrome until you turn it on in that browser as well.
