Just a few weeks ago, specifically at the end of January, WhatsApp launched the expected dark mode in the beta version of Android. Since then, only those who adhere to this program could activate this mode, which allows us to change the color distribution of the interface to relax our eyes. Several weeks later, and after verifying the proper functioning of this tool among this small group of people, the dark mode makes the leap to other devices.
The company has announced, through a statement, the arrival of dark mode to other devices: “We are very happy to update WhatsApp with the function most demanded by our users around the world“A function that, as WhatsApp explains, has been designed both to reduce eye strain when we are in low-light environments and to help avoid uncomfortable moments in which the phone illuminates the entire room.
How to activate dark mode on Android
After announcing the arrival of this new function, those responsible for WhatsApp have reported that have resorted to the colors closest to the default in the iPhone and Android to minimize eye strain and, incidentally, helping users focus their attention on each screen: “We do this using color and other design elements to ensure that the most important information is perfectly highlighted.”
To activate the dark mode on a mobile phone with Android operating system, you just have to go to Settings. Once there, go to Chats, continue for option Topic and choose Dark. To return to the previous topic, we will only have to repeat the same steps and select Clear. On the other hand, and if you want black to become the main protagonist of your mobile phone, use a background of this tonality. For this you will only have to Settings, Chats, Background And finally, opt for a solid color.
How to activate dark mode on iPhone
To activate the dark mode on your iPhone, you must have your application updated on an iPhone with iOS 13. Once this is done, you just have to activate the dark mode of WhatsApp from the iPhone system settings. To do this, go to Settings, continue in the Screen and Brightness section and select the dark mode. You can also do it from the Control Center shortcut or automatically if you have configured your mobile to activate automatically at a specific time.
Therefore, and after two years working on the tool, WhatsApp launches its most anticipated feature. To celebrate, the company has released a short film in which we can see several people blinded by the clear mode. Some people who, after opting for dark mode, can enjoy their mobile without their eyes suffering.
