Make near-black text black.

Image from store Blacker Text
Description from store It has become fashionable to make text dark gray instead of black. That's hard on middle-aged and older viewers. This extension lets you snap dark text to 100% black. You can adjust how dark the text needs to be for the snapping to happen. Dark gray backgrounds also snap to full black, and nearly white text or backgrounds snaps to white, unless you turn off these features.

  • (2025-04-15) Jessica S. (darkocean): Thank you so much for fixing this! I truly need this with webmasters having gone insane and using light gray text in tiny font sizes all the time. One of the truly useful accessibility extensions out there that doesn't annoy you, it simply does it's job. How to use: Right click the extensions icon > options > An options area will pop up, change the settings to: Blacken range for text: 55% Whiten range for text: 20% Chick save refresh the page that you want to see the text better, click the extension's icon again. Will work on most sites, some are codded to resist because they're a-ho*es. XD ( go download a font resizer extension the good ones blacken text too. My favorite one has been broken by the annoying 'best practices" b.s. So when I find one and remember to come back I'll add it in this review. Webmasters need to stop messing around with text color it causes eye strain! Gray text is just as bad as during the 90's when people were using florescent pink and lime. Ugg.
  • (2024-09-27) Lorraine Teixeira: Super useful! It makes gray text clearer and easier to read. I chose this extension because it lets you adjust the sensitivity, so secondary/inactive texts can stay lighter if you want. But the background dimmer bugged some sites for me, so I have to keep it at zero - thats the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars.
  • (2024-09-10) Stephen Ho: How to invoke the change? I have "blacker text", pin it on the bar. How do I make the text to blacker??? Thank you my friends.
  • (2024-08-08) PMA: What? Add the extension and you can't use it. Seriously, what a waste of time.
  • (2023-10-28) J. S. (darkocean): It seems to be working better? I request and on-off switch please, there's a site I only want it sometimes work (when reading a web novel) and the rest of the time I want it off so I can occasionally see the multicolored text that people in the forums use. Thank you for keeping this working and not abandoning it! Also, the settings could be less confusing, like a note on what way makes text darker or lighter.
  • (2022-05-09) Hamza Ibrahim: It makes website grey font to appear into black font. Works really well.
