It is indeed not possible to activate the dark mode on Instagram from the application, and it is Mosseri who in his social media announcement explains how to do it. To do this you just have to activate general night mode of your mobile device and that will consequently involve the app.
Starting today, you can use Instagram in dark mode on iOS 13 or Android 10. Turn dark mode on your phone to try it out. 👀

If you are wondering how to do it, then we explain:
- Android 10: Settings> Display> Dark mode
- iOS 13: Settings> Display and Brightness> Dark mode

This could generate discontent among consumers since if someone does not like the general night mode of their device, they will not be able to opt for Instagram. One of the advantages of using the dark mode in the application is to visualize the content the best without hurting the eyes, in addition to creating contrasts between the photos and the background of Instagram.
Trends in this type of display are increasing, since different applications such as Facebook Messenger, Chrome and the operating systems themselves launched their versions of this modality, this with the aim of offering better navigation and improving the user experience.
