Trick to Get Dark Mode on WhatsApp Web

As noted, WhatsApp Web hasn’t officially received the dark mode feature yet, though it’s already in the pipeline for the coming time. For now, you can enable dark mode on WhatsApp through Inspect Element option, as follows.

1] Open WhatsApp on your phone and head to Settings > WhatsApp Web.

2] Next, navigate to web.whatsapp.com on your computer. Scan the QR code through your phone to log in.

3] Now that you’ve logged in, right-click on the WhatsApp web page and click Inspect Element. Alternatively, you press Ctrl+Shift+I to toggle the Inspect Element screen.

4] Click on Elements from the top menu. Right below it, you’ll find a string named body class= “web” within the first few lines (shown in the screenshot below).

5] Right-click the line, tap Edit Attribute, and change”web” into “web dark,” i.e., body class=” web dark.”

6] Click anywhere on the screen or press Enter to save.

That’s it. You should now be able to use the dark theme on WhatsApp Web. Note that reloading the page will bring you back to the default light mode. And you’ll need to follow the same steps again to switch to the dark interface.
