Facebook's dark mode interface disappeared from iOS users

Last few days, Facebook users tweeted complaints about the disappearance of dark mode support in Facebook for iOS after updating the app. According to the tweets, many users cannot find the in-app dark mode toggle available in the "Settings" menu of the Facebook app. This means that you can't manually turn on the dark mode even if you want to use the system-wide support.      According to 9to5Mac , experts who share daily news about Apple, this is not considered a major bug. Still, it can affect the visual consistency of users who prefer system-wide dark mode on their iPhone or iPad. The system-wide dark mode was released along with the iOS 13 in late June 2020.
