If you are a dark mode lover, you can now relax your eyes when using your LinkedIn account. Here’s how to turn on the dark mode feature on LinkedIn.
What Is Dark Mode?
Dark mode is a display setting or theme that uses white text (or light gray text) against a black or dark background, as opposed to the normal light mode display with black text against a white background. Dark mode goes under a number of names like dark theme, night mode, black mode, etc.
Dark mode helps to reduce the amount of blue light emitted from your phone, which helps reduce eye strain and lack of sleep. It also reduces the amount of light your phone produces, which reduces battery consumption. But there are many reports that dark mode doesn’t conserve that much battery.
How to Set LinkedIn to Dark Mode on Web
Earlier, it was reported that LinkedIn was testing a dark mode for the web. It’s here now! Here’s how to change LinkedIn to dark mode on the web.
Click on the Me icon at the top menu on the LinkedIn website. It drops down a menu showing your profile and a few options. Under the Account section, click on Settings & Privacy. It leads to an Account Preferences page. Click the Change option beside the Dark Mode section. Click Dark mode. After clicking Dark Mode, the entire LinkedIn website will automatically change to dark mode.
How to Set LinkedIn to Dark Mode on Mobile
LinkedIn dark mode is also available on the mobile app. It uses roughly the same steps as the website. Here’s how to change your LinkedIn app from light mode to dark mode.
Click on your profile icon at the top left of the app. Click on the Settings option under your name. Click on Account Preferences. Click on Dark Mode under the display options. Then, click on Dark Mode to immediately change your LinkedIn app to the dark mode version. 3 Images Close
Try Dark Mode on LinkedIn Yourself
Now, you can easily change to dark mode on the LinkedIn app and website. The dark mode feature doesn’t sync across the web and mobile versions, so you have to change both separately.
