Facebook has finally began the public testing for the Dark Mode on Facebook’s main App. The company’s Official App has had the feature requested by users for a long time. In a Twitter post, a famous Reverse Engineer announced it publicly in collaboration with Facebook.

Jane Manchun Wong(@wongmjane) announced the update in a Twitter post(via Gadgets360). The video attached starts with him and Facebook’s Alexandru Voica chatting over the Dark Mode. In it, the latter says the “Dark Mode is rolling out today”. And the rest of the video switches to Dark Mode. And it shows a bit greyish UI than the previous build that leaked in 2019. However, it looks like Facebook is publicly testing it through a wider audience but not everyone. Accordingly, Facebook is yet to put out a public notice on its newsroom.

Besides, the spokesperson has confirmed to XDA that the feature will soon pop up on the settings of the Facebook App as it rolls out the feature to Android & iOS globally. In case you get it soon enough, head over to settings from the top-right corner of the App. As you navigate to the Privacy option, you will find the Dark Mode toggle.

That said, unlike the Facebook Official App, its sisters like WhatsApp, Instagram, and even its Lite and the Messenger Apps already have Dark Mode. Earlier this year, WhatsApp finally received the feature after a lot of testing. And Messenger got it a year earlier. Facebook’s desktop UI also has dark mode which got a revamp back in May. Nevertheless, the update might seed out to a wider audience soon, and it’s best to have some patience till then.
