How To Enable Dark Mode Theme in Facebook Messenger App

Facebook’s messaging app Messenger has come a long way ever since Facebook introduced it more than seven years ago. The app has been updated and changed frequently throughout the years. Something that Mark cannot seem to make up its mind about is the design of the app. The user interface has changed multiple times and every app update has brought a few changes here and there.

The latest update of the app has introduced a new design that some users like and some don’t. Furthermore, there is a feature that is included within the app, but not activated. Dark Mode is a feature that is becoming very popular lately. All mainstream sites and applications have already implemented a dark mode theme. This mode looks like it hasn’t gone through final approval because it is not enabled and there is no way for the average to enable it on the Messenger app.

The good news is that you can easily enable the new Messenger dark mode theme if you are rooted. The process is simple, short, and can be done by most users by following the tutorial below.
