WhatsApp: dark mode comes to Android

Finally! According to the specialized site WABetaInfo, the dark mode is preparing to land on WhatsApp. However, it is a basic function that is missing in the very simple messaging app that has the belief of not messing with the gadget options. The developers felt it was time to finally take a step forward and introduce a dark mode that is often requested by users. This is what we see in the dark mode of YouTube or the dark mode of Android Messages.

WhatsApp: dark mode finally arrives on Android

You can also find a concept of what WhatsApp might look like in the tweet below. This is not an official screenshot, the information that dark mode is coming soon comes from the code of the latest beta versions. Here we imagine a theme that can “show” absolute blacks, fully compatible with OLED screens of smartphones. But to judge, we’ll have to wait to see it in action.

We don’t have an exact release date, but it will arrive in beta very soon, whether it’s on Android or iOS tonight. Here we explain how to download the latest version of WhatsApp by APK, allowing the option to get the latest beta version or the latest final version of the app before it becomes available on Play Store.
