Back in the last year, Facebook rolled out a Dark Mode for Messenger. Since then, users have been waiting for a similar mode coming to the Facebook app on iOS and Android. The request for Dark Mode through Facebook’s portfolio of apps is a recurring theme. However, it finally gained force with the arrival of iOS 13 and Android 10 featuring system-wide dark modes. After that move, many companies started to develop dark counterparts of its light-eye-straining applications. Facebook is one of these companies that is slowly converting its social media/messenger portfolio to comply with recent dark mode guidelines.
In February, the company rolled out the dark mode setting for the Facebook Lite app, however, the main Facebook app still hadn’t received this option. We first saw Facebook’s dark mode in action earlier this month, when 9to5Google shared some screenshots revealing the application. The screenshots also revealed the app’s COVID-19 tracker. Now, the company is giving a further step that will surely bring joy for enthusiasts of Dark Apps. According to a report from SocialMediaToday, the company has finally started rolling out the new dark mode for a few users.
