Twitter's mobile app for Android and iOS has a night mode which has a dark theme. It is not available for the twitter web app yet. This extension brings the night mode to web. Night mode is enabled by default and it can be switched to the default theme by clicking on the twitter icon that shows up in the tool bar when you visit twitter.com.

If you see some dark text that are hardly visible on dark mode, you might have to change your twitter theme from "Edit Profile" page.

Update v0.0.8 (Jan 10, 2017):

  • This update prevents user selected theme color from being applied to certain elements as some theme colors do not work well with the night mode.
  • Have also added a short survey which will open when someone uninstalls the extension. Feel free to close it.

Unfortunately it didn't work. There's a black outline around my feed and profile picture but no dark mode.
