WhatsApp Beta for Windows 10 and 11 Gets a Clean Dark Mode

Last Updated on February 10, 2022 by Anu Joy

WhatsApp has finally brought a clean dark mode for its Windows version, albeit in beta for now. The developers of the app have started rolling out a new beta build for WhatsApp, which comes with a new stylish dark mode for the testers to try out. Though the new addition, a notable one for that matter, has not been mentioned on the Microsoft Store listing for reasons unknown, various sources have been able to test and verify the same.

Clean Dark Mode Arrives On WhatsApp For Windows

The latest WhatsApp beta (version 2.2205.2.0) adds a native dark mode for the testers to try out. We can expect the change to roll out publicly in the next couple of months, but there’s no confirmation on an exact rollout schedule so far.

Nevertheless, the Dark mode for WhatsApp for Windows 10 and Windows 11 is now out in the wild, and we have a working clue as to what it would look like. The Dark mode persists throughout the app, including the app settings menu, the title bar, and the chat background. This could come in handy if you want to make use of the app during night or during dark-lit conditions, when dark mode is best suited for a more comfortable viewing experience.

As for stability concerns, as has been the case with all beta versions of apps, one might run into various unknown performance issues with the latest WhatsApp beta build, so it’s always recommended to understand the potential drawbacks of trying a beta version. It won’t run as smoothly as a stable version of an app. In any case, if you are in a hurry to try out the clean Dark mode on WhatsApp, you can now do so by updating to the latest beta.
