Dark Mode

A dark mode extension for the sites that never built one

Turn on dark mode in Chrome and any page follows — including the ones with no dark theme of their own, like Google Docs and Sheets. Images keep their real colours, and sites that are already dark are left alone instead of being inverted twice.

This site is blocked

You asked to keep this one closed until 18:00.

25:00
Focus session

Distracting sites stay shut while the timer runs.

Counted on your device

Nothing about this visit left your browser.

Time to wind down

Breathe with the circle until the screen lets go.

Forest over the page

Ambient sound, nothing blocked.

Look 20 feet away

Twenty seconds. Your eyes have been at this screen for two hours.

Three things today

Written this morning, still waiting.

Today you are the Learner

Every tab is a vote for who you are becoming.

Dark, without the mess

Images keep their colours. Already-dark sites are left alone.

25 on, 5 off

The rhythm runs itself; you stop watching the clock.

Warm after sunset

The page warms up in the evening instead of glowing at you.

Two minutes

In, hold, out — follow the circle and go back to work.

click the toggle — this is the real interface, not a screenshot

Most dark modes invert everything, including the photographs. That is not a theme, that is a negative.

How it works

Switch it on and forget about it

The work is in what it does not touch.

01

It checks the site first

The dark mode Chrome extension checks the page before touching it: sites that already ship a dark theme are skipped, so nothing gets inverted twice.

02

Colours are turned, not flipped

Text and backgrounds change. Photographs, videos and logos keep their original colours — a dark theme Chrome can apply without turning a sunset into a night sky.

03

You tune it

Intensity, contrast and brightness, globally or for one site.

What you get

What makes it different

Already-dark sites are skipped

Detection runs before anything is changed, so dark sites are left as their authors made them.

Images stay honest

A photo of a sunset does not become a photo of a night sky.

Per-site control

Everywhere, or only on the sites you name. Part of Pro.

Common cases

Where dark mode gets used

Dark mode for sites that never made one

Any page turns dark, including ones whose authors never considered it.

Reading at night without burning your eyes

Adjust brightness and contrast to the room rather than accepting one preset.

Keeping photos looking like photos

Images and video keep their original colours; only interface colours change.

Sites that are already dark

They are detected and left alone, so nothing gets inverted twice into an unreadable mess.

Dark mode for Google Docs and Sheets

Those are the pages people ask about most: long documents, white to the edges, no dark theme of their own. A Google Docs dark mode extension is the usual search, and this is that — the extension draws one — text and background turn, the charts and images in the document keep their colours.

Dark mode for Gmail and other web apps

Same thing in the browser tab. A dark mode Gmail without switching accounts to a different client, and the same for any web app you keep open all day.

Sites that already have a night mode

Left alone. YouTube, X and the rest ship their own dark theme — turn it on in their settings, and this stays out of the way rather than inverting an already dark page.

Dark mode only on some sites

Per-site rules let you keep it where it helps and off where it does not. They come with Pro.

Dark after sunset, light by day

Scheduling comes with Pro, so you do not toggle it by hand.

What dark mode reads

It reads the colours of the page you are on to decide what to change, and that happens entirely inside your browser. The list of sites you gave rules to stays on your device.

Questions

About Dark Mode

Will it break sites that are already dark?

No. Detection runs first and such sites are left untouched — double inversion is exactly the bug this avoids.

Do images get inverted?

No. Images and video keep their original colours; only interface colours change.

Can I turn it on only for some sites?

Yes, with Pro. On the free plan the dark theme runs everywhere at once, which is what most people want anyway.

Is this a night mode or a dark theme for Chrome?

Both words describe the same thing here. The Google Chrome dark mode setting only darkens the browser frame — menus, tabs, settings — and stops at the edge of the page. Dark mode Chrome pages themselves need an extension, because the colours belong to the site, not to the browser.

Why not just force dark mode in Chrome flags?

Because it is blunt. Force dark mode Chrome flags invert the whole page, photographs included, and break layouts that rely on light backgrounds. Dark mode extensions for Chrome can look at the page first — this one skips already-dark sites and leaves images alone.

Is dark mode free?

Yes, on any site. Scheduling and per-site rules are part of Pro.

Dark mode is one of twelve

It comes with blocking, focus sessions, screen time and eye care — free.
