Telegram is one of the applications that most worries about implementing the options that its users ask for. It is a vitamin version of WhatsApp for most, but that makes us have many hidden options that are of interest.

Today we want to focus on the dark mode, something that is becoming fashionable since Android Q will implement it at the operating system level.
Telegram has been with this option for a long time and even allows us to activate it manually or automatically.
How to turn on night mode manually
The easiest way to use Telegram's dark mode is to change the color patterns we have available in the application. This is done by following these steps:
- We open the application.
- We open the side menu.
- We choose the Settings option.
- We go to Chat Settings.
- We go to the Theme section.
- We choose the Dark Blue or Dark Theme.
As you will see, the interface changes and a dark background with light colored text is used.
Activating dark mode automatically
We might think that once seen how the dark mode is activated there is not much more to tell, but we talk about Telegram, not any application.
The engineers of this app have been good to implement a second form of activation of the dark mode that will depend on three factors:
- Scheduled: According to the hours we want.
- Scheduled: According to local sunrise and sunset.
- Adapted: depending on the ambient brightness.
These are the three configuration options we have and to activate any of them we must follow these steps:
- We open the application.
- We open the side menu.
- We choose the Settings option.
- We go to Chat Settings.
- We go to the Settings section.
- We activate the automatic night mode.
- Click on the option we just activated.
- We select the mode.
- We set the mode by choosing the brightness, or the hours or city in which we are.
- We choose the kind of dark theme we want.
As you can see, the customization options are very high, more than in any other application we have tried.
