User reviews

Users appreciate Dark Mode Chrome for effectively reducing eye strain with simple, customizable dark mode features that synchronize with system settings. It is praised for ease of use, helpful color inversion, and better performance on certain sites compared to alternatives. However, common issues include incomplete support on some websites, limited styling options, and inverted image colors when toggling modes. Overall, the extension offers a reliable and lightweight dark mode solution, though it's not perfect for every site or user preference.

Pros

Effectively reduces eye strain and is beneficial for users with eye conditions.
Simple and easy to use with intuitive features like color inversion and brightness/contrast adjustments.
Syncs with the OS global dark mode setting, supporting dynamic dark mode based on system preferences.
Offers customization options such as user-defined stylesheets per website domain.
Generally works better on some sites than other dark mode extensions and handles color inversion without affecting images adversely.

Cons

Does not work properly on all websites, requiring page refreshes or failing to activate dark mode on certain pages.
Limited styling options compared to Chrome's built-in dark mode flags, missing more advanced dark mode styles.
Some users experience issues where images become inverted colors when dark mode is toggled off.
Not a true dark mode but rather a color inversion, which may not be as comfortable for all users.
Presence of multiple similar extensions makes it confusing, some of which may not function consistently.

根本不是暗黑

擴充裡的「Invert Color功能」是直接將色彩反色處理（橘黃色系↔︎藍色系、紅紫色系↔︎綠色系），功能僅對頁面背景、文字、按鈕等做反色，不會對圖片造成影響，但若是關閉反色後，其他元素恢復原始狀態，圖片卻會變成反色的樣子。黑貓這款基本上用起來沒問題，若在意色彩舒適度會更建議試試其他款擴充。

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