It can't be switched off fully. But you can use the clock view to only show a clockface on screen and nothing else.

Thank you

Can I please ask how you do that?

On the home screen swipe down from the top between the radio station and AC display.
On the system menu select screen off.

You can have the clock displayed or just a blank screen. To toggle between the two go into settings, general, scroll down to the bottom and you'll find the option to switch the clock on or off.

Is there a dark mode option?

Is there a dark mode option?

I’m sorry to add a comment as I didn’t have an mg4 however just wondered Is it the same as on the ZS where there is short cut/ programmable button on the steering wheel and when you pressed that it would take you to the option to shut off the screen/ put it to sleep ?

I don't think there's anything like that on the MG4.

I've set my display to be pemanently in night (dark) mode. Much easier on the eyes.

If you are having issue with Android Auto displaying in daylight mode rather than dark mode at night, if you toggle the automatic headlights off then back on it will force the screen to read the ambient light levels again and set the Android Auto screen to dark mode if it is dark.

I prefer the dark mode even in daylight, and have similar themes applied on my laptop at work. I spend a lot of time in front of a computer screen and the dark mode helps reduce eye strain.
