This Emoji Actives Messenger Dark Mode

Facebook Messenger has a new dark mode that can be activated by sending the πŸŒ™ Crescent Moon emoji in any message thread.

Once the πŸŒ™ emoji has been sent, a message appears noting that Dark Mode can now be turned on (or off) in Settings.

This tip comes via Matt Navarra who suggests that if this doesn't work, to try tapping the πŸŒ™ emoji in the chat window.

All emoji keyboards should include this emoji as it is one of the original emojis from Japan, and was added to the Unicode Standard in 2010.

If for some reason you're unable to find the emoji, you can also copy and paste it here - πŸŒ™ - or on the Emojipedia entry for πŸŒ™ Crescent Moon.
