It seems mobile software’s and the app world are busy going dark. Instagram is the latest app to go dark. Dark mode or dark theme has been congregating quite the fan following of late all the credit goes to their ability to blacken the interface. This facility has been harnessed to reduce strain on the eyes. Apart from being appealing, enabling dark mode also makes your device’s battery last longer, so actually, it’s a win-win.
It goes without saying that it comes as no surprise that Google and Apple have begun to release system-wide dark modes across their operating systems, and app developers are updating their apps to support dark mode. One of the biggest third-party apps getting the new treatment is Instagram. Company head, Adam Mosseri, tweeted today that the app has been updated to take advantage of the native dark mode support on iOS 13 and Android 10.

For iOS 13 Users
For those wondering Android users, who wants Instagram’s Dark Mode they should hold their horses. Dark mode support is reportedly being rolled out to the Instagram iOS app as of now, so make sure your smartphone is running the latest version of the app.
However, Instagram doesn’t let you toggle the dark mode option on or off within the app itself. Unlike Twitter which had dark mode feature months ago. This means that it has to match your iPhone’s system-wide settings, which is pretty standard right now as most iOS app makers are adding dark mode support for the first time.
