The feature we genuinely craved for since years has now finally got rolled out to both Android iOS users after more than a month of beta testing. The user’s most requested feature starts getting rolled in the stable WhatsApp update which should arrive soon.
The Facebook-owned company says that dark mode is “designed to reduce eye strain in low light environments“. A WhatsApp spokesperson speaking to The Verge said,
During testing, we found that combining pure black and white creates high contrast that can lead to eye fatigue. So instead, you’ll notice a special dark gray background and off-white colour that lowers the brightness of the screen, cuts down the glare, and improves contrast and readability.
WhatsApp has even released a short video titled as “Hello Darkness”, and also includes a previously unreleased version of “The Sound of Silence” by Paul Simon.
How to enable WhatsApp Dark Mode on Android and iOS?
Having updated your WhatsApp Messenger to the latest version, WhatsApp will automatically switch to its native dark mode if a system-wide dark mode theme is enabled on iOS 13 or Android 10.
If not, then all you have to do is, head over to Settings -> Chats -> Theme and selecting Dark from the options. The iOS users will enjoy the benefit of a pure black theme in most areas of the app while those on Android will have to get used to a dark grey background.
Even though it’s not a huge difference but Android users with OLED displays would have preferred a pure black theme instead. Have you updated your WhatsApp yet? Enjoy the most wanted WhatsApp feature of all time.
