Facebook has been overhauling its messenger app recently, slimming it all the way down to focus a lot of on chat. And promised that it might eventually roll out a dark mode for users.
That mode is currently rolling out, however there’s a tongue-in-cheek trick you would like to try and do so as to activate it: you have to moon somebody.
The trick, discovered by android Police, 9to5Mac, and others, is simple: send somebody (or yourself) a crescent moon emoji ( ).
Once you do so, a shower of moons appears in the chat window, and you’ll get a prompt to activate the mode in settings.
visit your profile page in the app, and it’ll present you with an choice to turn the mode on.
Android Police notes that the mode has apparently not rolled out to everybody and that some have gotten a message saying that it’s still a work ongoing.
