WhatsApp rolling out new light, dark theme colour for business app

Meta-owned platform WhatsApp
Meta-owned platform WhatsApp is releasing a new feature to bring a light and dark main theme colour to the business app and its accessible for some beta testers.

Notably, the new feature has been designed to provide users with greater control over the appearance of the app. It does so by allowing users to customise the primary branding colour, moving away from the traditional green in order to discover new options, reported WABetaInfo.

In this version, the Meta platform has automatically assigned new colours for both the light and dark themes.

Particularly, the accent colour for the light theme is now black, whereas, for the dark theme, it has been set to white.

The light blue accent colour, which was previously used in the WhatsApp Business app, has been replaced by these updates.

Additionally, they introduce black and white icons for the app settings, chat info screen, and the business banner at the top of the chats list.

WhatsApp Business has adopted black and white accent colours for its light and dark themes, respectively while WhatsApp Messenger retains its traditional green accent colour.

This difference is intentional as it helps users visually differentiate between the two apps and ensures there is no confusion about which app they are currently using.

The overall design and interface of both apps remain very similar apart from the accent colours.

A household that used three hundred units of power finds a bill that equals half of the main earner's monthly pay. People ask the same angry questions at tea stalls, in bus stops, and around dinner tables. Why does power cost so much? Where is all this money going? Did we always pay this much for power? The short answer is simple. The high cost you pay today is not an accident. It is the result of choices made over thirty years. It comes from contracts signed in the 1990s, fuel bought from other countries, big loans taken from foreign banks, and millions of units of power lost to theft each year. To understand why your bill feels like a second rent, we have to look back at how Pakistan bui...
