If you’re like most people, Facebook is a vital part of your life. But if you’re like me, you probably don’t have the time or inclination to turn it off. That’s why I’m going to tell you how to enable Facebook’s dark mode on your iPhone. First, open up the Settings app and navigate to General > Security > Privacy. Under “Privacy,” select “Enable dark mode.” Now, when you log in to Facebook, the app will default to using light mode. If you want to revert back to using dark mode, just change it back in the Settings app and save your changes.

Activate Dark Mode in Facebook on iPhone

To turn on Facebook’s dark mode on your iPhone, first, launch the Facebook app on your phone.

In the app’s bottom bar, tap “Menu” (three horizontal lines).

On the “Menu” page, in the top-right corner, tap “Settings & Privacy” (a gear icon).

On the “Settings & Privacy” page, from the “Preferences” section, select “Dark Mode.”

A “Dark Mode” page will open. Here, you have various ways to control the mode:

On: Enable this option to activate dark mode in the Facebook app. Off: Turn off dark mode with this option. System: This option uses your phone’s default mode, which means if you have enabled dark mode on your iPhone, the Facebook app will also use dark mode. The same applies to light mode.

And instantly, the Facebook app will turn dark.

Enjoy a dark navigation experience on your favorite social media platform!
