While the dark theme on Chrome looks excellent and reduces eye strain, it misses out on an important feature – Dark Mode Scheduling.

Chrome doesn’t include any scheduling option for the dark mode to turn on and off at a particular time of the day. Not only Chrome but almost all modern web browsers like Edge, Firefox, etc., misses out on the dark mode scheduling option.
