Facebook app should now get dark mode soon
Facebook on Friday rolled out the much-awaited Dark Mode on its revamped and immersive desktop app for all users. The Dark Mode will help billions of users enjoy lower brightness, alongside contrast and vibrancy, thus minimizing screen glare for use in low light. "The new immersive layout along with Dark Mode makes viewing videos on Watch a great experience," Facebook said in a statement.
Dark Mode is also available on Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp. Similar to the mobile experience, the new desktop website is faster with new streamlined navigation, easy to find videos, games and Groups, while the home page and page transitions load faster.
