The dark mode, also known as the night mode, is a display setting on your smartphone which gives it a dark coloured theme. It shows text and other content in a light colour on a dark background, instead of the default dark coloured content shown on a light background. The idea behind the dark mode is to reduce blue light exposure to the eyes so that health problems like eyestrain and headaches that come with prolonged screen time may be avoided. While enabling dark mode in Snapchat iOS is a cakewalk, however, Snapchat’s Android version does not yet support it. But there’s no need to worry, as there is a workaround for that as well. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to enable dark mode in Snapchat on Android as well as iPhone

This will force apps like Snapchat (its older version) which does not support dark mode natively, to successfully enable the same within their apps. Android achieves this by inverting the colours of such apps, which however will not affect the legibility of any content displayed within them.

In this way, you can enable dark mode in Snapchat on any Android device. As of now, this is the only walk around for achieving the same within Android while it remains a cakewalk in iOS devices like iPhones.
