Ever since Dark Mode rolled out in iOS 13, it has (kind of) become my default option for multiple reasons. Aside from offering an easy-on-the-eyes interface, the black theme also extends the battery life. That said, the other day I was jotting down my thoughts in the stock note-taking app. As I had enabled dark mode on my iPhone, the background of the note was pitch black which I didn’t like. And that’s when I wished to use the light background in Notes app for a relatively clean look without having to disable the system-wide dark mode on the iPhone or iPad. Luckily, I found a straightforward hack to get it done. Interested? Let me show you how it works the right way!
Set Light Background in Apple Notes Without Turning Off Dark Mode on iOS 13 and iPadOS 13
First things first, the Apple Notes app itself provides a quick way to set a light background for a note without needing to turn off the dark theme. So, of course, there is no question of going through a roundabout method or installing a third-party tool. The only condition is your iPhone or iPad must be running iOS 13 or iPadOS 13 respectively.
Switch Between Light and Dark Backgrounds in Apple Notes on iOS and iPadOS
It’s a no brainer, is it? You can follow the same steps mentioned above to switch between the light and dark backgrounds in the Notes app (keep in mind, the dark mode has to be turned on your device). Supposing you had opted for a light theme for a specific theme earlier and now want to go back to the pitch-black one. All you need is to tap on the share button and select Use Dark Background option in the share sheet.
