Request for Dark Mode for the Website and the Desktop (including Paper)
I nearly go blind every time I open dropbox, how can you guys have been around so long yet you still don't have a simple toggle to change the CSS style to a darker color to not blind your users?
Seriously. Can we please get a night mode?

Yes, I've signed into this in order to add to the people requesting dark mode. I use Dropbox for less than 100GB, so I appreciate the service over competitors, but I definitely expected dark mode by now. Please add dark mode to the Android app.
EDIT: You can enable dark mode on multiple apps on Android 10 by enabling "Override force-dark" in "Developer options" found under the "Hardware Accelerated Rendering" header on a Pixel 3. Other Android phones may have slightly different layouts for Developer options, but should work if they are running Android 10 or higher.
"Developer options" is a hidden set of options on Android phones. You can enable "Developer options" by finding the option labeled "Build number" and tapping it 7 times. This enables the options. The "Developer options" setting is found in the "About phone" settings for a Pixel 3. "About phone" is located under "System" for some Android phones

Please let this become a reality, we need dark mode across all of Dropbox.com, the desktop app and mobile apps.

Take a look at these screenshots. They come stright from Dropbox Paper. If you have a paper doc and click ... , then present dark mode is located in the top right. We know you can do it, we just need it across the website, Desktop app and mobile app.

Would be a good time to get this implemented ASAP
- DaniWDHelpful | Level 5I also consider dark mode a must-have feature.
