User reviews

I just installed this extension a few days ago, and so far, I'm impressed! First off the extension comes with the ability to adjust the font the style and word spacing which helps out with people with ADHD which I have. The next customizable feature is the ability to change the color of the background with nine different color options which helps out not only if certain colors bother you, but can help people who are color blind and need a certain color for better readability. Finally, you have the content display which can adjust the page from to a more compact size if you don't want to be overloaded and overwhelmed with the amount of text on the screen. Final words: The only thing I would love to see added in the future would be the ability to add your own custom colors for the background and text. Other than that, this extension has all the features of the dark mode, and the ADHD readers into one extension. Kudos to the developers!

Wow! I don't have autism but do have ADHD. We also get sensory overload. This extension is amazing!!! Thank you!

Please add more customisation options. Like, a toggle on/off if we want the images on a page to be monochrome or not.
