A follower sent me this **concept** of WhatsApp for Android with a Dark Mode (OLED compatible). Do you like it?

 

WhatsApp Dark Mode will turn the light theme background into dark. The shortcut icons like camera and pin are white in color with a dark grey background.

It is similar to the text messaging app’s UI of Windows mobile. On Window mobile phone OS, WhatsApp has a comparatively darker background.



Besides a newer and different look, WhatsApp Dark mode will also consume 43% less battery of your mobile device even after full brightness unlike the default theme (White).

Popular apps like Google, YouTube, Twitter already have a dark mode. Facebook’s Messenger app will also release Dark mode in some time.

Apart from this feature, if you want a dark node then you can still try a workaround. Change your wallpaper to a darker one probably full black, and also change your keyboard theme to a darker one. Now, this somewhat resembles WhatsApp dark mode. Apps like SwiftKey and Gboard offers simple yet elegant themes for free.
