Description of the issue:
Hi i have two pixel 2 android phones. both phones show the same version, the most recent updated version. one browser has a “theme” option that allow me to chose “dark” mode - which works great. my other phone does not have a “theme” option n the same place. i can’t for the life of me figure out why this is the case. i looked at all the settings and i see nothing. what am i doing wrong?

**shows under settings

@jb123 did it have the same Android version? AFAIK some older Android version not support it.

@jb123 Do you have dark mode enabled on both devices? I think the option shows up only when you have dark theme enabled on device.

yes same andoird version, although i will update it to android 10 now and see if it changes.

let me check whether dark mode enabled. i’m pretty sure it is on both.
this is dark mode enabled through developer options in android?
