The dark mode in Android applications is something that in 2019 should not be missing. Perhaps that is why manufacturers have rushed to update all their applications with this theme, which allows not to absorb so much light in dark environments and also save some batterywhen used on OLED displays. OLED displays don't light up the pixels when black is displayed and that makes dark themes save us some power.
One of the applications that is also preparing its dark theme is LinkedIn, owned by Microsoft. Researcher Jane Manchun Wong has discovered it and has mentioned it on her blog. This new mode will allow you to check what your friends or coworkers are doing without the need for the screen to shine with the classic LinkedIn theme. Brightness no longer takes too much and blue light filters are increasingly common in mobile phones.
This will be the dark theme of LinkedIn
LinkedIn already has its dark theme ready for the Android mobile application. In fact, this theme is already present in the code although mortals cannot activate it yet. In the following image we leave you a screenshot of what this mode will be like, which allows us to understand that they will not beat around the bush. Everything will be seen with a black background and in fact it reminds us a lot of the dark theme that Chrome is currently using on Android, with a completely sober and somewhat boring mix of colors.
At the moment LinkedIn Dark Mode is still in development phase and is actually a totally unstable version. Wong has been digging into the app's code and has discovered that certain parts of the interface still cannot enable this dark mode. In fact, even the LinkedIn icon would be changed from the classic blue to black and white.
LinkedIn will surely take a reasonable amount of time to finish development and ship the dark mode to the beta users of the app. Despite this, this indicates that we will soon have it available on our mobiles and every time a manufacturer launches it in its application we are a little more happy. If you are looking for apps that have dark mode, here are some that can already activate it.
