Have you been enjoying using the dark mode or night mode setting for some of the apps on your phone or computer?
Many different apps are starting to offer this as an option. It can make it easier to view information when you are using your phone at night or in the dark, and the aesthetics of dark mode can simply look better than the traditional alternative.
The Twitter mobile app has a night mode option that a lot of people like more than the default Twitter display option.
Our guide below will show you where to find and enable Twitter’s dark mode setting on your iPhone.

Our guide continues below with additional information on putting your iPhone’s Twitter app into dark mode, including pictures of these steps.
Do you dislike the appearance of the Twitter app, especially when you are reading it at night or in the dark?
The bright white background can be a little irritating in low-light environments if you have sensitive eyes, so you might be looking for a way to tone that down.
Fortunately, the Twitter app on your iPhone includes something called Night mode that will change the background to a dark blue color.
In fact, if you’ve ever seen someone’s Twitter screen on TV and it looked different than yours, it’s likely that they were using night mode.
Our tutorial below will show you how to use this on your iPhone’s Twitter app, too.
