WhatsApp, Meta‘s instant messaging platform, is said to be developing a darker top app bar for its Android beta version.
This change aims to give users a different visual experience while using the app.
The addition of a darker theme based on grayscale and the colour black could improve performance and provide a more visually appealing experience, especially on advanced mobile phones with AMOLED screens.
According to IANS, the majority of users seem to like the change. Some users, however, believe that WhatsApp should release a completely new dark theme for the Android app, similar to the one available on WhatsApp for iOS.
The darker top app bar is currently being developed, and it is expected to be released to beta testers in a future app update.
