Peter Hutkins (ID: 00000099d84eaa5d) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/21/2023 Extension is broken. As of very recently (this week), it blanks out every page that I look at. Chrome of MacOS, Version 115.0.5790.98 (Official Build) (arm64). Developer links are Used to LOVE this utility, as it allowed me to see the subtleties in graphs and data representations that were not made for colorblind people.

David Valenta (ID: 000000c9a1c456f5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/02/2022 It really works! It also affects colors in images not only texts ang e.g. backgrounds of the pages.

Daniel Buchmann (ID: 0000005290f6968a) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/19/2022 Sou daltônico (deuteranomaly). Só não leva 5 estrelas porque todas as vezes preciso recarregar a página para aplicar o filtro. Tentei contato com o suporte, mas, deu página não encontrada. Será que conseguem corrigir isso para nós? Ou seja, se habilito o filtro, deveria aplicar para todos os sites sem precisar recarregar.

Mayank Kumar (ID: 000000f45e483a19) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/10/2022 I almost cried! I installed the extension, configured the sliders, refreshed the page and couldn't believe my eyes. I'm almost 36 years old and this is the FIRST TIME I could see what others always saw and took for granted. I never knew the difference between two colors could be so stark and obvious!! I'm so overwhelmed right now. THANK YOU. This has changed my life. I'm certainly more motivated now to get color blindness glasses.
