Introduction
Google Photos is a service from the Google company (sub-company from the main Alphabets Inc. company). This application provides you with a way to browse and edit your photos from your mobile device. And this service does not provide you with a built-in Google Photos Dark Mode on the platform. But there is a solution to this problem.
Platform to get Google Dark Mode

There is a dedicated option to get Dark Mode on iOS (iPhone and iPad). But this can help you get the same dark mode experience on Google Photos:
