Google Play Store already has a dark theme following the likes of Facebook, Twitter, Flipboard, WhatsApp, Instagram, Slack, Pinterest, and their popular app like YouTube, and Gmail. Dark theme is one of the most required features, but anyway it’s here now, and most Android devices will be able to enable dark mode on Google Play Store, from Android 5 and newer.

2. Tap on Display & brightness (based on the manufacturer) and then click on Dark theme.
3. Toggle dark theme and all Android apps will go dark, only for those that support dark theme including the Google Play Store app.
If you don’t like it you can switch back to light mode. You can separately enable dark mode from the Play Store app if you want.
