Check Right Now If Your Facebook App Has Had Dark Mode Yet

Facebook is testing the dark mode for its Android and iOS apps. If you are part of the test, you will be able to enable it on your phone, try it out!

Facebook is testing the dark mode for its Android and iOS apps. The new mode was unveiled last Friday by app researcher Jane Manchun Wong who shared a video that was made in collaboration with the social giant.

The social giant already offers an option to set the dark mode for the Facebook desktop version along with other mobile apps such as Messenger and WhatsApp. While many users prefer a darker background in apps, the dark mode has also been said to help save battery life and reduce eye strain for those using their phones in low-light conditions.

On Mondy, a Facebook spokesperson said in an emailed statement:

“We know people have been asking for dark mode, and they won't have to wait much longer. People will start to see the option in their Facebook app settings as we roll it out globally over the next few weeks.”
