Turn On Facebook’s Dark Mode on Android
To make the Facebook app use dark mode on your phone, first, launch the Facebook app.
In Facebook’s top-right corner, tap the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines).
On the “Menu” screen, scroll down to the bottom. There, tap “Settings & Privacy.”
From the expanded “Settings & Privacy” menu, select “Settings.”
On the “Settings & Privacy” page that opens, in the “Preferences” section, tap “Dark Mode.”
The “Dark Mode” page offers multiple ways to control the theme in the app. Your options are:
On: Select this option to activate Facebook’s dark mode. Off: Use this option to disable dark mode. Use System Settings: If you enable this option, Facebook will use your phone’s default mode. This means if you have enabled dark mode on your Android phone, Facebook will also use that mode.
