Instagram Gains Support for iOS 13's Dark Mode

by

Popular social networking app Instagram was today updated to add Dark Mode support for iOS 13, introducing a darker theme that activates when ‌Dark Mode‌ is turned on.

The new ‌Dark Mode‌ option is available throughout the app, from viewing the main feed to browsing to the profile. ‌Dark Mode‌ can be accessed by activating ‌Dark Mode‌ on an iPhone running the iOS 13 update.

To get ‌Dark Mode‌, the latest version of Instagram is required, even though the release notes don't mention the new feature.

yes because dark mode is the best thing ever made since sliced bread! :rolleyes: I always see sites saying this app or that app just got dark mode like they just invented something! If anything, it hurts my eyes after a while and I go back to the light mode.
If dark mode is hurting your eyes then there's something seriously wrong with your eyes.
