Facebook's dark mode begins to reach the first users

Facebook dark mode

Facebook has never been known for being one of the first to implement some of the new features that both Apple and Google introduce in the new versions of their operating systems. However, she is always one of the first to copy everything that works on other platforms (although not with WhatsApp).

The dark mode came to iOS hand in hand with iOS 13, a dark mode that allows us to make the most of the battery consumption of our device with an OLED screen. Facebook, faithful to its slowness in taking advantage of these developments, has begun to try dark mode in your app.

A small group of users has confirmed that this new mode has begun to be available in the official application, a functionality that can be activated manually through the Settings> Privacy settings. Several media have contacted Facebook who has confirmed that it has begun to deploy this functionality.

From Facebook they affirm that at the moment this new mode is available in a very small group of people and that nor is there an official schedule to start rolling out this mode to all users of the platform around the world. They also state that they are testing other designs, so it is likely that the images that accompany this article do not correspond to the final version.

The first news related to Facebook's dark mode did not show a completely black backgroundInstead, a dark gray background is used, so you could not take full advantage of the advantage offered by OLED screens, since they only turn on LEDs that are different from black, which is a significant battery saving in applications that use black both in the interface and in the background of it.
