As we are anticipating a release of system-wide dark mode for iPhone with iOS 13, app developers are already incorporating this feature in their apps. The most recent app to join the fold is Facebook Messenger which brings a beautiful dark mode for you if you know how to activate it. Since the feature is still in testing phase, it’s not available to the public yet, but there’s a cheeky way to enable it on your device right now. So, if you are interested in using dark mode on Messenger on Android or iOS, here is how to enable the hidden dark mode:
Enable Hidden Dark Mode in Facebook Messenger
Facebook has implemented an easy and fun process for enabling dark mode. Even if you hadn’t read this article, chances are that you would’ve discovered it yourself. That said, if you don’t want to wait for the discovery to happen, here is how you can enable dark mode in few easy steps.
1. Launch the Facebook Messenger and send the 🌙 (moon) emoji to any of your contacts. In fact, you can even send it to yourself if you want to.
2. Once you send the emoji, Facebook will notify you that you have found a dark mode. Just tap on “Try in Settings” and then enable the “Dark Mode” Toggle. 
3. Once you enable it, this is how your Messenger chats will look. It’s pretty cool, isn’t it? 
Note: If it doesn’t work automatically, just force close the app and launch again.
I must say, this approach of allowing users to discover dark mode is quite good and will certainly delight users who discover this themselves.
