The AMOLED optimized mode is a hidden app appearance setting that is exclusive to the mobile version of Discord and Experimental settings in desktop client. When enabled, the entire interface becomes darker than the standard dark theme, along with a pure black background. This theme is incredibly useful for devices with AMOLED displays, as when a pixel is set to pure black, it shuts off entirely to save power. It was an exclusive Android feature until February of 2023, as it is now available on iOS devices as well, but only works if you have the regular Appearance menu instead of the Nitro color themes.
On an Android or an iOS device, go to the "Appearance" section of the user settings.
Tap the "Dark" option ten times.
Enable the toggle labeled "AMOLED optimized mode (experimental)"
(The AMOLED toggle is automatically enabled both on Android and iOS after tapping the "Dark" option ten times.)
Desktop[]
On your desktop client, click on "Settings".
Navigate to the "Experiments" menu and scroll down until you find "Enabled AMOLED on Web"
Click on it, and select "Treatment 1"
Go to the "Appearance" tab and enable "AMOLED Mode"
(This is an EXPERIMENTAL feature)
Trivia[]
(Only on Android) - After the fifth tap on the "Dark mode" option, a counter that reads "You hear a rumble! Knock _ more times..." appears for each tap.
(Only on Android) - Once the AMOLED option has been revealed, a tooltip that reads "Brave one, the path to darkness opens!" appears.
