About:
Nocturnal is a lightweight macOS utility that provides instant access to dark mode settings via a simple menu bar interface. It streamlines the process of toggling between light and dark appearances, eliminating the need to navigate through System Preferences. The tool is designed for users who frequently switch themes based on lighting conditions or personal preference.
Key Features:
  • One-click dark mode toggle from menu bar
  • Minimalist and lightweight interface
  • System-native appearance switching
  • No background processes or bloat
Use Cases:
  • Quickly switching between light and dark themes for eye comfort
  • Demonstrating UI changes during app development or design workflows
Alternatives:
  • NightOwl – More feature-rich with scheduling, but heavier and less minimal
  • f.lux – Focuses on color temperature rather than system theme toggling
