How to Enable the Dawn Theme for Dark Mode

Reducing Screen Brightness at Night

If you find the standard Cube UI background too bright or want a more comfortable interface for playing at night, you can pair the base pack with the optional Dawn Theme. The Dawn Theme works as an add-on pack that darkens the look of Cube UI without removing its convenience features or layout changes.

Setting the Correct Load Order

For the Dawn Theme to work properly, both packs must be active at the same time, and the theme must be sorted higher than the base Cube UI pack.

1. Open the Minecraft Settings menu from the Start screen.

2. Go to the Global Resources tab.

3. Make sure the base Cube UI pack is already in your Active list.

4. Locate the Dawn Theme under My Packs and activate it as well.

5. Check your Active packs list and move the Dawn Theme so that it sits directly above Cube UI.

6. Back out of the settings menu to let the game reload your resource packs.

In Minecraft Bedrock, resource packs higher on the list override the files of packs below them. Keeping the Dawn Theme above the main Cube UI pack ensures that the darker theme textures overwrite the default bright backgrounds while preserving all underlying menus and animations.
