Features & Capabilities

Stop doom-scrolling. Start focusing.

GrayMode removes color from distracting websites, making them boring enough to leave. When social media loses its visual appeal, you naturally spend less time scrolling and more time working.

How it works

Bright colors trigger dopamine and keep you hooked. GrayMode applies a grayscale filter to the sites you choose, reducing visual stimulation and helping you break the endless scroll loop.

Features

• Global toggle — enable/disable with one click • Preset categories — Social Media, Video, News, Messengers • Custom blacklist — add your own distracting sites • Adjustable intensity — from 50% to 100% grayscale • Zero setup — works immediately after install

Preset sites include

Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, Netflix, Discord, Telegram, and more.

Why grayscale?

Research suggests that removing color from interfaces reduces compulsive usage. Tech companies spend millions making apps colorful and engaging — GrayMode fights back by stripping away the visual "hooks".

Is GrayMode Safe?

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.

GrayMode requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
