After coming out with Dark Mode for the Android and iOS apps, WhatsApp is now working on a dark theme for WhatsApp Web and WhatsApp’s Desktop application. (Image: WABetaInfo)
The dark theme is now available in the beta versions of the Android and iOS apps and expected to roll out to the stable versions soon. At the same time, the WhatsApp’s web interface and the desktop application are also getting a makeover to have a constant dark themed experience across platforms. (Image: WABetaInfo)
WABetaInfo posted the screenshots of the new dark interface of the WhatsApp Web as well as the desktop application. The mode doesn’t appear to feature an OLED-friendly theme but instead uses a dark grey hue. (Image: WABetaInfo)
At the moment, the dark feature is under development and clearly not in its perfect form as visible in the screenshot posted by the WhatsApp tracker where we can see emojis on the application with a white background. (Image: WABetaInfo)
The mode is not publically available yet and considering how long WhatsApp took to roll out the dark theme for Android and iOS apps, we shouldn’t expect the implementation of the dark mode on WhatsApp Web and WhatsApp Desktop application anytime soon. (Image: WABetaInfo)
