Dark Mode Extension

Dark Mode and Dark Reader makes all the websites you browse into dark/night mode so that you can browse the internet without straining your eyes. It is an extremely useful chrome extension for those who use internet especially at night.

The Dark theme extension. Works with all websites!

You need to refresh all the tabs, which were opened BEFORE the dark reader was installed. You can also restart the Chrome to refresh all the tabs at once. Otherwise, dark mode and night shift mode will work only with the newly opened tabs.

If the website has built-in night theme, you can control it directly from extension and if it doesn't like Gmail, Google Docs, Office Online, GitHub and millions others, we will convert the colors to provide you with smooth transition on dark mode.

What will you get from Dark Reader extension:
1. An easy way to create dark mode on every website. In addition, you can customize your black theme visual from Brightness, Contrast, to Saturation.

2. A Night Shift mode which changes the website's color to warmer, making it much more pleasing to watch.

You can choose to use either dark theme or night shift mode, or both. You can also quickly activate these modes with simple keyboard shortcuts.

3. You can set up schedule for each dark theme and night shift mode, and decide when you want to auto-activate dark theme.

Also Dark for YouTube extension converts YouTube theme to a highly customizable dark charcoal/blue theme. This extension is built on top of the default YouTube theme, so it is very light-weighted compare to using themes injected by stylish or stylus extensions

Note: Remember to disable any similar Night Theme extension to prevent compatibility issues!

We hope you enjoy it.
