Stuw R (ID: 000000fe97230aac) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/23/2022 Quite useful for what I wanted. I'm looking for an extension to view each colour channel separately and this extension does this but with a minor irritation... Why does setting the colour sliders to zero flip their value to 255, and setting the opacity slider to zero flip its value to 30%? This just means that if I want to set a colour to minimum I have to avoid setting it to zero. I'll keep it installed until I find something better for my purposes.

jun choi (ID: 000000d8c98942d5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/19/2021 It is simple, and it is possible to set up an exception page.

Tim Holloway (ID: 000000ac8e4d83d7) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/28/2020 It's just another temp adjuster. When adjusting the colours, it flickered then returned to the original, orangish colour most of the time. It's basically garbage. I wanted to get rid of the green tint of my newish ASUS Flip C434 but this is a garbage extension that is less accurate or useful than the night light setting built into Chrome OS. See for yourself!
