Dark mode for Google™ docs

Enable dark mode on Google Docs to reduce eye strain while working on your documents.

Dark Mode for Google™ Docs is a simple and efficient extension designed to reduce eye strain by enabling a dark theme on your Google Docs interface. This extension changes the typical bright white background of Google Docs to a soothing dark gray or black, making it ideal for users who spend extended hours working on documents, particularly in low-light settings. By minimizing blue light exposure, it helps prevent discomfort and fatigue, allowing for longer, more comfortable working sessions.

Easy to install and use, the extension adds an icon to your browser toolbar for quick toggling of dark mode on and off. It ensures your document formatting remains unaffected while providing a more comfortable visual experience. Whether you’re a student, professional, or frequent user of Google Docs, this extension is an essential tool for improving your productivity and eye health.

Needs some fixing. Okay if you're desperate. The "Amazing Dark Mode" extension works better in docs.

The UI is mid, but its efficient enough for my migraine days. Especially when there isn't many options to begin with.

Technically works, but absolutely black color of the actual page is a terrible decision. Also makes standard text in Times New Roman 14pt unreadable.

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 for Google™ docs requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
