Other Facebook family of apps such as Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Facebook Lite and WhatsApp (which has a terrible dark mode for Android users) all have received the dark mode feature.
However, Facebook which is the main focus here is taking it a very long period for it to receive the feature. My opinion? Facebook is taking its time to develop a flawless feature that will cater for billions of users in different regions, different smartphones, connectivity and other technicalities.
The social giant also noted that the feature, for now, is available to a « small percentage of users » worldwide. So you might likely not see the option to turn on the feature in your Facebook app settings, though its gearing for a wider release.
