How to Get Snapchat Dark Mode in Android

If you’re an Android user looking to use Snapchat in Dark Mode, you may be out of luck. While iOS users can switch to a darker theme within the app, this feature is not supported on Android.

However, there is a workaround that allows you to use the Dark Mode Feature by forcing the system’s darker color scheme on unsupported apps. It’s important to note that this workaround will not work on Snapchat app releases from early 2020.

In order to use it, you’ll need to downgrade to an older app version, which may mean missing out on new features like Maps.

Note
If you have an Oppo, Realme, or OnePlus phone, you can force Dark Mode in Snapchat without using this workaround. To do so, go to Settings, then Display & Brightness > Dark Mode settings, and toggle the “Dark Mode for third-party apps (beta)” option.

 

How to Activate Force-Dark Feature on Android

If you want to use the force-dark feature on your Android device, you can follow these steps:

1) Go to Settings on your Android device, scroll down, and tap About phone.

2) Scroll down again and tap the Build number repeatedly (up to 10 times) until you see a notification indicating that Developer Mode has been activated.

3) Go back to the previous screen and tap System > Developer options.

4) Now turn on the switch next to Override force-dark to enable this feature.

This will allow you to use the force-dark feature on your Android device, which can help apply a dark theme to apps that don’t usually support it. Remember that this feature is hidden in the Developer Options screen, so you’ll need to access it through the steps outlined above.

 

How To Download Older Versions of Snapchat

If you want to use an older version of Snapchat on your Android device, you’ll need to sideload it. Here’s how:

1) Begin by deleting your current installation of Snapchat. To do this, tap and hold the Snapchat icon on your home screen, then drag it to the Uninstall icon or click on it from the popup.

2) Visit a website that offers APK files, such as APK Pure, and download the version of Snapchat you want to install.

3) Once the download is complete, tap Open to open the Snapchat APK file. If you’re installing an apk for the first time, you may be prompted to allow installation from unknown sources. To do this, tap Settings and activate the “Allow from this source” option.

4) Tap Install and then Open to complete the installation process. When the app opens, log in with your login credentials and provide the necessary permissions for the app to run on your device.

5) To prevent Snapchat from updating automatically, go to the Google Play Store and search for Snapchat. Then, clear the “Enable auto-update” box from the top right corner of your screen.

 

Final Note

Dark Mode is in beta development on Snapchat for Android. Keep an eye on Snapchat’s changelog in the Google Play Store to see when the feature becomes available. When it does, you can delete the sideloaded version of Snapchat and install the latest version from the Play Store.
