The dark mode feature is an optional setting that transforms the app’s UI background from white to black and the text from black to white. Since displaying darker pixels on an LED screen takes less power than displaying white pixels, dark mode uses less battery on your device. It’s also less taxing on the eyes, and many believe that it helps them sleep better, though this isn’t scientifically proven.
The basic user interface of dark mode has seen it available in many apps. Facebook is one of such apps that have this feature available. As a Facebook user, you can access this feature in the app just by enabling it. Below, we’ll discuss the steps on how to enable dark mode on Facebook via Android phones.
