And although Android 9 Pie has already taken a step in this regard, with Android 10 the definitive leap towards it has been made. dark mode, for which apps have to adapt. We already have Gmail's dark mode available, and most GAPPS or Google Apps have been adapting recently, but some others remain. Now we wake up with him Google Play Store dark mode, the app store.
Google had promised that when the launch of Android 10 in its final version, all its applications would be adapted to the new dark mode. And the truth is that they have not complied, because their new operating system has arrived and, although they are a minority, there are still apps pending to receive the interface change. Among them are Gmail and the one at hand, the Google Play Store. The email client received the dark mode, but still in the testing phase and with limited availability, and with the Google Play Store application store the exact same thing is happening now.

For now, the Google Play Store dark mode It is only available for some devices that have already been updated to Android 10. There is no need to update the application, because Google is applying the change directly from its servers. And that is precisely what explains the limited availability of this interface. It seems that they are carrying out tests, and that little by little they will extend its availability so that it reaches the rest of users both on smartphones and tablets.
As for the dark mode, there is no surprise because it follows exactly the same line as the rest of the already adapted apps. A gray background in which the texts appear white.

It is unknown at the moment when it will be available to all users. But considering that these are the final tests, and that the interface is really already finished, it should be a matter of days before the dark mode of the Google Play Store is available to everyone. Meanwhile, through instamocks We have made these screenshots in which we can see how are the changes that will affect its interface.
