Are you able to switch themes on-the-fly w/ the switcher button, next to your profile photo?
Are you able to switch themes on-the-fly w/ the switcher button, next to your profile photo?
no, the button disappeared as you can see in the screenshot.
Also broken for me since this morning, presumably due to latest WhatsApp update. (macOS Catalina)
Broken in Catalina as well.
Same here (version 0.4.2081)
Same here (Windows 10) But mines worse.
WORKAROUND: The following attachment enables the official dark theme as a temporary replacement. Replace the index.html files on the following path with the provided one:
0.4.2080-Workaround.zip Windows: WADark-Windows > styles > win32 macOS: WADark-macOS > styles > darwin
Apply using the "default" theme on the GUI installer.
I opened the app this morning and saw that it was back to the default theme, then I unzipped the files to apply the dark theme, after completing that was the result. I've tried all themes but none work, it stays the same.
btw how did you blurred those parts??

By using any image editor such as Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, Pixelmator etc.
I confirm it stopped working also on macOS

worked for me. thanks man. nice workaround until author releases new version.
Can confirm that it stopped working on Windows 10. Reinstalling (both whatsapp and the dark theme) didn't help.
Can also confirm that the workaround by @UnderEu works.

Worked, thanks
Pls help. Applied this fix, set to default, changed to deep black; whatsapp not starting anymore. Does this fix only apply for the default? And how do I get my Whatsapp back for now?
EDIT: Just launched the WhatsAppSetup.exe again. Fixed it, also WAdark default working properly. Just not so sure if I should try anything but the default right now.

Worked, thx !
The workaround provided by @UnderEu did not work correctly here for some reason, but what I did for now was go into %localappdata%\WhatsApp\app-0.4.1307 and ran the older version I had already installed WADark from there.

Only the official dark theme (default) is working, every other there is broken. We have to stick with that, for now.

Eventually, your instance will self update and breaks over and over again. So... your mileage will vary.

Worked, Thanks for the workaround!
Another work around is deleting the newest update. Go to C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\WhatsApp and delete the most recent app-0.4.xxxx, old version should still be there.

Work for Win10 v1909. and still waiting for Dev to update all those things.
Many people are watching this issue for a real fix (or for real issues with this workaround). There is no need to post yet another "works!" comment. We all know it works by now.
Needed to apply this workaround on a clean install to get it working.
Yep, applied on a clean install this workaround works.
it works, thanks
Works!
Please, update readme with this fix.

I can't get it work on catalina, partial color change only. Whatsapp Version 0.4.2081.
Works!
Please, update readme with this fix.
It isn't a fix, it's a workaround. The proper fix who covers every provided theme will be pushed whenever it's fixed.
Thank to this workaround, the Dark Theme is back again!!! Thank you, friends!
It looks like, even with this workaround, some elements are broken: Emoji picker and message quotes, i.e.. Also, we're aware there's a new client update being pushed (0.4.2088) and the same issues remain. The dev team is working on those and they'll release the proper fixes whenever possible. Please, be patient.

Can Confirm, Worked for me as well. Thank you <3
The workaround works partially on my macOS installation (WA version 0.4.2088). The button for theme switching isn't reachable. A click on it results in navigating to the status updates. But, at least, it works very well and everything is in beautiful black again ;).

Works on Catalina! Sadly the button to switch between light and dark mode isn't there anymore. Am I missing something or does the fix not fix that in particular?

Thanks! Done!
Applied defaut theme with index.html from workaround, but there's a greenish tint. Looking at the colors in the default theme I don't think it's supposed to be this way... or is it?
IS there any option to use other color schema with this workaround ?
apply and working, well done

Works here! Thanks! ;) WA 0.4.2088 | MacOS Catalina
working! thanks! WA 0.4.2088 | Win 10

No
WhatsApp Dark works with this as well
see here...now its easier than ever
Essentially, it's the same thing this tool does, except for the additional themes. If people are interested in the official dark theme and only it, feel free to use it.
Workaround works pretty well on Windows 10, 0.4.2088, except:
When you double click a text message, it will stay in a unreadable color (even when the respond message is already sent).
Edit: Seems to be fixed in WhatsApp release 2.2017.6 on WIndows. The workaround had nothing to do with it.

Worked for me on Windows 10
For me is working in Windows 10 and WP version 2.2017.6.
Please remember not only to replace the index.html file but also reinstall by running WADark.exe as Administrator.
why don't you make a new release ?
