How To: Enable Dark Mode & OLED Night Mode in the Twitter App

How To: Enable Dark Mode & OLED Night Mode in the Twitter App
Smartphones and dark mode go hand in hand. Screens can be bright, causing eye strain and battery drain, and dark mode can take the edge off both of those. It's perfect for nighttime browsing, but also for general use, especially on OLED displays with inky blacks. Dark mode, aka night mode, is particularly great for tweeting, and Twitter makes it easy to switch.If you're an avid Twitter user, you might know that Twitter has had a dark mode option since 2016. However, up until March 2019, Twitter only had one dark mode option. The company rolled out an OLED night mode dubbed "Lights out" on March 28. While this mode looks great on any smartphone, those with an OLED display will really notice a difference when browsing.Don't Miss: How to Tell Whether Your Phone Has an LCD or OLED Display

Step 1: Enable Dark Mode (Previously Night Mode)Enabling "Dark mode" (previously called "Night mode") on the Twitter app is actually super simple. First, make sure you're on the main page of any of the four tabs at the bottom of the display. Just tap on one of them if you're not.Next, tap your profile icon in the top left or swipe right from the left side of the screen. Now, tap the light bulb (iOS) or crescent moon (Android, some iOS versions) in the bottom left of the menu. Alternatively, on iOS, you can long-press the lightbulb, then tap the slider next to "Dark mode." iOS (left) vs. Android (right). You can also get there the longer way by tapping "Settings and privacy" from the pull-out menu, then "Display and sound." You'll see the "Dark mode" settings here.

Step 2: Enable or Disable Automatic Dark ModeIf this is your first time enabling "Dark mode," Twitter might ask you if you'd like to turn the option on and off automatically based on the time of day. If you chose "Not Now" but wish you chose "Yes," you can easily enable this option at any time. iOS (left) vs. Android (right). On iPhones with the light bulb icon, the fastest way to do this is to long-press this icon. When the submenu appears, you can easily activate "Automatic dark mode" by tapping on the slider. For all devices, including iPhone if you want to go the long way about it, enter the side pull-out menu again, then tap "Settings and privacy." Next, choose "Display and sound." On iOS, you can simply tap "Automatic dark mode," and Twitter will react accordingly. On Android, tap "Night mode," then tap "Automatic at sunset." iOS (left) vs. Android (right). If you have an iPhone X, XS, or XS Max, you might notice that your dark mode doesn't match the color shown above. That's because, by default, Twitter uses its OLED "Lights out" mode for OLED devices. See below for instructions on switching between normal "Dark mode" and "Lights out."

Step 3: Enable OLED 'Lights Out' Mode (Optional, iOS Only)While Twitter's latest update to "Dark mode" with OLED-friendly "Lights out" is currently exclusive to iOS, it's only a matter of time before it lands on Android as well.By far, the easiest way to enable "Lights out" is to long-press on the light bulb icon in the side pull-out menu. If "Dark mode" isn't enabled already, tap the slider next to it. Then, tap "Lights out," and watch your display sink into perfect night mode.If you happened to dive into the settings for automatic dark mode on iOS, you might already know how to enable "Lights out" the long way. Tap "Settings and privacy" once more from the side menu, select "Display and sound," then tap "Lights out" to enable the setting. If you don't see the update on your iPhone, force-quit the app and reopen it. If you still don't see the option, just wait — Twitter is rolling out the update server-side, so it should hit your device soon.Don't Miss: How to Force-Close Running Apps on iPhone X, XS, XS Max & XRFollow Gadget Hacks on Pinterest, Reddit, Twitter, YouTube, and Flipboard Sign up for Gadget Hacks' daily newsletter or weekly Android and iOS updates Follow WonderHowTo on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Flipboard
