Inbox Dark Extension

A dark \"theme\", sometimes called Night Mode, for Google Inbox. This extension was written as a personal project and is presented as-is. Updates will be applied as long as I continue using Inbox.

v1.6:
-Some hangouts sidebar updates to various elements.
v1.5:
-White backgrounds darkened on empty inbox and folders.
v1.4:
-Changed the title bar of open emails to a lighter gray, stays gray when you scroll down.
-Darkened the \"Remember To\" dialog area.
-Darkened the attachments window.
v1.3:
-Testing out a pale yellow for new emails, as the current bold white is hard to distinguish.
-Brightended up some icons. Black icons are still problematic.
-Canned replies are brighter.
-Horizontal dividers are dark now.
-Miscellaneous text brightened.
v1.2:
- Fixed 1.1 bug that prevented Hangouts area from disabling.
v1.1:
-Darkened the Hangouts area.
-Tweaked miscellaneous items like hover tooltips.
-Small changes to the extension popup.

GEORGE BILLGREN (ID: 0000009adf291099) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 02/24/2022 it does not work on- e mail still white

Sumjoi (ID: 000000567db691b0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/11/2018 Perfect. Liked Inbox but it was too white to use all the time until I found this. Shame Inbox will be ending in March 2019.

Drew Watson (ID: 000000eb429516e1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/26/2018 Update: I'm having an issue reading emails with dark (but not black) fonts. These are non-HTML where the background color is set to a gray by your app. Is there a way to override the dark font colors to white? I can tell you've done this for black text already. Still an amazing extension, thank you! Thank God for this extension. I love Inbox but have always hated the brightness and blues!

Ry Pinti (ID: 0000002fc708cdec) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/24/2018 Seems to work well unless the folder one is currently viewing (inbox, snoozed, etc.) is empty -- then it is bright white.

Martin Naydenski (ID: 000000a234eab8ac) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/22/2018 Best dark scheme up to date on my opinion.
