Ian Summerfield (ID: 0000008121e9ee9b) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/20/2023 In Google Docs, it shows the web page for a split second and then goes completely white.

icon

Jeniffer BlaIr (ID: 000000d9b7c70ef3) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/06/2023 here was no change, and it didn't even pop up in my browser most of the time. No instruction except for a sight test with colored and faint stars. I thought I was going to be able to color code, but I guess it's just a cheap idea from google.

icon

Ian D'Armond Percy (ID: 00000010162249bc) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/14/2023 Pretty much worthless. It definitely increases the contrast, but not between the colors which I have most problems differentiating.

Morten R. Husfeldt (ID: 000000d2c6ee77bf) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/23/2021 Works to some extend - color adjustment is not very effective and often not enough to improve the vision for my deutan colorblindness.
