last October, Facebook said that it might quickly roll out Dark Mode for Messenger. however it is been more than 4 months since then and Facebook nevertheless hasn't rolled out this a lot-awaited feature to its users. nicely, even though the social media giant hasn't officially enabled this feature for absolutely everyone, there may be a workaround that lets you enable it without difficulty.
The Dark Mode on Facebook Messenger can be enabled via sending a moon emoji (this one:🌙) in a chat. As soon as you send this emoji, you may see a message pop-up at the top that reads "You found Dark Mode!". below that will be a button with "switch on in Settings" written on it. (Note: you need to update Messenger to the latest version, otherwise it won't work. After updating, it works as shown above.)
Tapping on that button will take you to the Settings menu of Facebook Messenger. There you'll see a brand new option called "Dark Mode". it's going to have a toggle button right next to it, tapping on which will switch on the Dark Mode.
As soon as you switch on the Dark Mode, Facebook will show a message saying it is still running on this feature so you may not see Dark Mode anywhere in Messenger. it could also appear broken at some places.
It is currently unclear if this technique works in all international locations and systems, however Redditors from the Philippines, Portugal, Czech Republic, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia report that it worked for them. It also worked on our Android smartphones in India and over at headquarters, both on Android and iOS, so it is secure to say it's widespread and can be coming officially faster rather than later.
If you happen to live in a country other than the ones mentioned above, and if this technique works to your Android or iOS device, let us know in the comments section below.
