After turning on the Override force-dark switch, you will see that most of the apps switch to dark mode. This will force the WhatsApp to go into dark mode also. This will let you use the application in complete dark mode. This shows how close the company is to release the dark mode for other devices. The company might be testing the final features before rolling out the dark more, ironing out the bugs so that the end user does not face any problem. However, it has to be said that before they do, they should work on the colour scheme a bit better as its quite painful to the eye to use the application with the dark mode in its present state.
