With iOS 13, it has now become easier for any user to turn on Dark Mode on the Twitter app. The social media app had already improved its night mode with the pitch-black color palette in addition to blue/grey theme. However, users can enable dark mode in Twitter on iPhone and iPad running iOS 13.

Dim: It’s the same Night Mode (Blue/grey color) that had existed in Twitter since 2016. If you want to have a slightly low-intensity dark theme, go for this option.

Worthy Addition…

Personally, I’ve found this new add-on worth having a go. Twitter had introduced this feature for its Android in 2017. Since then many iOS users had been asking for it. And I’m really glad that Twitter has listened to the feelings of Twitterati just like Facebook Messenger.
