Facebook started testing dark mode for its Android app in August last year. Since then, the company has gone ahead and rolled out a redesigned interface on the web with dark mode and even on the iPhone. However, dark mode support has still been missing from Facebook's Android app.
Now, it looks like Facebook is getting to roll out dark mode support for its Android app as it has started testing the feature publicly. Leaked screenshots from a few months ago had shown how dark mode in Facebook's Android app would look like. A video posted on Twitter by @wongmjane shows the new dark mode in action on Facebook's Android app.

You asked it, I chatted with Facebook’s @alexvoica about it and here’s a video made in collaboration with Facebook! pic.twitter.com/TGjdTXDxoP
While the video might suggest that Facebook is rolling out dark mode support for its Android app, Wong's tweet indicates that the company is only testing the rollout publicly. If everything goes as per plan, a wider public rollout should be on the cards soon.
