About a month ago, Facebook Messenger introduced an emoji-based teaser, to enable people to use dark mode. Today, the update is rolling out worldwide. You can darken your screen while using the iOS and Android app from your settings.
Dark mode is a great asset for minimizing the light from your device’s screen to your eyes. Various apps, for example, Youtube and Twitter, have integrated and modified the dark mode since it was well received by the users.
