Now, a concept of the WhatsApp's Dark mode has been posted on Twitter and it looks exciting. WhatsApp's Dark mode will roll out for both Android and iOS devices soon. Being the most popular instant messaging app, WhatsApp has been introducing new features thick and fast and the new Dark mode is expected to further improve the users' experience and also reduce the battery consumption of phones, especially the ones with AMOLED displays.

The Dark mode has already found its way to Windows 10 PC's and notebooks. It is also available on Apple's iPhones with iOS 10 and its computers MacOS Mojave. The Dark mode is not only easier on eyes but also offer a neat look. There have also been reports that running a dark mode on certain applications like YouTube, at 50 percent screen brightness, consume 14 percent less battery than when on normal mode.
