ISLAMABAD – Facebook launches Another interesting feature for users acrossthe World.
Facebook has decided to tease the launch of dark mode for its Lite appbefore the full app.Dark Mode all the things!
For those unfamiliar, Facebook Lite is the company’s attempt at a Liteapplication that does most of the stuff its main counterpart does, but itsaves power and most-importantly, data. Some mid-range and lower-endsmartphones struggle to run the main Facebook app but the Lite version wasa nice replacement as it ran on almost every smartphone.
No one was expecting the Lite app to get dark mode before the main app but,as spotted by WABetaInfo, some users started receiving the new version ofthe Facebook Lite app that adds a toggle in the Settings panel from whereyou can turn on dark mode.
The dark mode is enabled throughout the app and is nicely implemented. It’sa dark grey color as with other apps, and not a true black. AMOLED panelsmay not be able to take full advantage of this, but still, it shouldprovide some power savings.

Even with the advantage of dark mode on the Lite app, most people willstill be sticking to the main app as the Lite doesn’t offer the sameexperience. There are no animations, the UI is a bit basic, and it justdoesn’t feel as good as the main app.
Moreover, the dark mode on the Lite app seems to be a server-side change –which basically means that not everyone will be lucky enough to try out thedark mode immediately.
You can override dark mode for the main and Lite app through the developeroptions on Android 10, but it’s not stable and the UI on both apps isn’tclean with the force dark mode option.
