WhatsApp Tests Manual Night Mode in Android Beta Camera

The feature leverages on-device software enhancements to optimize exposure through noise reduction for low-light photos.

Beta-Tester von WhatsApp können jetzt auf den Nachtmodus in der Kamera zugreifen.

Overview

  • The night mode is available in Android beta version 2.25.22.2 for a limited group of testers
  • Users enable the mode by tapping a moon icon that appears when the camera detects low light
  • The in-app option removes the need to exit WhatsApp and use a separate camera app for dimly lit shots
  • Performance diminishes in very dark environments and the feature is not designed to replace professional photography tools
  • WhatsApp intends to roll the night mode out to more beta users over the coming weeks
