User reviews
Pros
- Effectively converts websites to dark themes, providing a global dark mode.
- Works on some sites that other dark mode extensions do not support.
- Has different dark modes/styles, with some preferred by users.
- Improves readability by reducing brightness and using dark backgrounds.
- Generally easy to use once set up.
Cons
- Inverts colors indiscriminately, causing issues on sites with already dark elements by making them unreadable.
- Breaks functionality on some websites, including issues with Google Docs, reCaptcha, Cloudflare captcha, and image opening in new tabs.
- Lacks adequate site-based customization and whitelist functionality, making global toggling inconvenient.
- User interface and settings are not intuitive; hard to access or modify key features like dark mode styles or exclude lists.
- Developer support is poor or inactive, and updates can cause regression or break compatibility with popular sites.

cool conversion for dark themes

Works perfectly thank you. In fact it works on sites that the rival Dark Reader does not.

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 (WebExtension) requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
- High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
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 (WebExtension) has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
Risk likelihood analysis details
- Low This extension was updated more than 6 months ago. Older versions are more likely to be stable and safe.
