Google has finally added the dark theme mode for the web Messages app but only when your system is running on the same. However, the choice has to be made via the vertical three dots “more” menu. Google Messages will not adopt the system theme automatically.

To change your app theme, visit the Settings section to see the new UI option for light and dark modes. The new update adds two options: System default and High contrast. The “System default” option allows the website to automate the process based on your OS settings. On the other hand, the High contrast option is there to enhance accessibility. The feature is meant for users who have difficulty differentiating elements on the screen due to their saturation.
