WhatsApp Dark Mode Feature Launched! How to Enable on Your Phone?

Social messaging app WhatsApp today launched the dark mode feature for both iOS and Android users. The feature will gradually be rolled out to its 2 billion users.

"This feature is designed in such a way that if you use the phone in low light, then your eyes will not be stressed. Hopefully, this will also relieve you from those situations when the phone lights up in the entire room as soon as you turn on the phone," said the company in a blog post.

How to enable it on your phone?

Since the feature will be rolled out gradually, you might not see it on your phone currently. If that's the case, try updating WhatsApp via Google Play Store or App Store.
