Slack’s doing its bit in the quest to save your phone’s battery life: The company just launched dark mode for mobile. 

The feature, which recently launched in beta, is now available to everyone. 

SEE ALSO: Slack has confidentially filed to go public

Turning on dark mode on both iOS and Android is easy: Tap on the three dots in the upper right corner (from channel view), tap Settings, and tap Dark Mode.

The feature will give the channels and the settings windows a white-text-on-dark-background look. The sidebar, which already had a sort of a dark mode look, will stay the same in both dark and normal mode. 

With this feature, Slack is following in the footsteps of numerous other apps that have recently added a similar option, including Facebook’s Messenger and YouTube.

And if you’re frantically looking for the dark mode option in the desktop version of Slack, don’t bother: It doesn’t exist yet. There’s hope ahead, though: Slack has announced it’s working on it.
