SNAPCHAT has the very cool feature of dark mode, which makes it easier to view at night.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to set up the lower light version on your phone.
It’s a popular trend among apps because it’s easier on the eyes in the dark.
There’s nothing worse than loading up an app in bed, only to be assaulted by the bright glare of an all-white screen.
Many apps are now offering optional or mandatory Dark Mode settings to avoid this.
It’s easy to do on iPhone and is slightly trickier (though still technically possible) on Android.
How do I get dark mode on Snapchat for IOS?
Dark mode on Snapchat is available for iPhone users.
First of all, you need to go to your profile by clicking your photo on the top-left corner.
Next, you need to select settings by tapping the gear icon.
Scroll down all the way to the bottom until you find App Appearance.
There are three options, Match System, Always Light, and Always dark.
By tapping Always Light, you set up the light feature on Snapchat permanently while with Always Dark you will get the dark mode.
By choosing Match System, your Snapchat app will be in sync with your iPhone system settings.
This means, if you have the Dark Mode activated in your phone, it will be activated in Snapchat as well.
If you turn the feature off for your iPhone, the dark mode will also be switched off from Snapchat.
