User reviews

Users appreciate the Dark Mode add-on for making browsing easier on the eyes and offering customizable settings. It works well on many sites and allows users to apply simple filters. However, several users report it malfunctions on certain websites, causing blank or gray pages. The add-on relies on a negative effect that some find unattractive, and users note that accessing preferences is cumbersome. Issues with the exclude list, especially regarding subdomains, also frustrate users. Despite these drawbacks, it remains recommended by many as one of the better dark mode extensions.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Dark Mode requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Dark Mode has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
