@iamdarren: While it isn't possible to apply Night Mode to apps, if you were checking something simple like your steps for the day then you can apply a widget to your Home Screen with a dark background so you avoid the brightness of S Health. Tap and hold anywhere on the Home Screen > Widgets > Samsung Health > Steps (Black). Alternatively go to Settings > Display > Blue Light Filter > On, or go to Screen Mode > Vivid > Advanced Settings, and play around with the white balance (not possible with Blue Light Filter active). Hope this helps.

Thanks I've added it, I can see that recently loads of apps are going dark. Let's hope Samsung notice this and conform to the new standard.  I also noticed how apple health looks glorious is dark mode

Yes Samsung DarkMode for Samsung Health app. Is soooo needed.

One of Samsung's most used apps, it's strange that it still hasn't benefited from the dark theme.

Come on Samsung, how hard is it to add dark mode, stop being lazy and add it now!

It should not take 5 years for Samsung to offer dark mode as an option.

I absolutely agree, it's is ridiculous that in 2025 Samsung Health App doesn't offer the benefits of Dark Mode like almost every other good app does. Come on you lazy software engineers, listen to your user's!

5yrs on, I think we have it now. 👏

Yes, but there is no setting like most apps have to allow you to choose. I.e. Light, Dark, System Default. So, like many people, they have only certain apps dark and some light.  Where's the choice?
