In addition to the apps Apple listed, here are a few other notable iPhone apps with dark or "pure black" modes:
And if you're ever looking for pure-black wallpapers for your OLED iPhone X, I highly recommend the "AmoledBackgrounds" subreddit.
the "AmoledBackgrounds" subreddit.' layout='fill' objectFit='cover' loading='lazy' width="700" height="400"/>
Just click on the link above, and browse and download away.
I recommend browsing this subreddit while you're on your phone, so you can quickly save these photos and try them out as wallpapers. I'd also recommend sorting the site by "Top," either by month or all-time, to see the very best OLED wallpapers ever posted to the subreddit.
(You get bonus points if you're using the Apollo app for Reddit, which has a pure-black mode, to browse the AmoledBackgrounds subreddit.)
