Give pages a better dark mode by avoiding things like full white text on full black background.
- Creates a dark mode of any page by inverting the original colors, background-colors, border-colors.
- Unlike most "dark modes," Better Dark Mode reduces eye-strain by not allowing any RGB values below 50 or above 200 by default. Darkness and brightness limits can be customized by user.
Potential updates:
- Find a way to avoid flash of non-darkened page before extension runs on page load
- Store the active/inactive state as well as darkness/brightness limit variables Chrome-wide (currently using localStorage)

- (2023-08-26) luc val: doesnt work on many websites and it also has privacy concerns
- (2023-08-24) Eric Ketzer: It doesn't work at all...
- (2022-05-20) DigsDiamonds: works...
- (2022-02-14) Warden Red: The way this extension handles color change is simply perfect for my eyes, the best I've ever tried. Unfortunately, the changes only take effect once the page is fully loaded, and I have a slow internet connection. Which means there's always a considerable delay and a lengthy exposure to original light colors.

- (2021-07-26) Venkata Koushik Pemma: Its working fine but my only issue is that when i open images it doesnt open and its a lot of glitchy other than that it is fine
- (2021-01-19) Nocturnal Owl Digitalist: Contrary to other 5 reviews, this extension doesnt work or gets updated with errors found. Last update was on "Updated 23 September 2017" and I rarely see any new update coming in 2021. Plus the 5 reviews dont highlight the issues faced. I am using it since it came and it use to work back then but now it doesnt. For example see this "https://postimg.cc/hXw59J9Y" screenshot and you will understand that it is not useful and best alternative to other existing here to turn dark theme for webpages. If dev updates or replies then I can think but until then this is it.

- (2020-08-10) Ankit Kumar Singh: Its nice. You can change brightness and darkness level according to your choice.
- (2020-08-09) Bonita Bromeliads LLC: Doesn't do anything on the first few websites i tested, including google web store.
- (2019-10-30) Enrique PH: Tampoco me funcionó.
- (2018-11-20) This is the best dark theme I have come across. There is no fuss and bother about keep changing different pages you want in settings and modes like other extensions, I wanted something quick and easy, and this is just perfect, It works with images and pictures too, showing them up beautifully. Thank you so so much for developing this extension, and have rated it five stars, as it truly is the best.
- (2018-08-07) Robert Morgan: Better Dark Mode is just what it claims to be. Better!
- (2018-04-21) 阿啪仔: Very nice
- (2018-04-11) Linda Ceron: No me funciono, como puedo quitarlo?
- (2018-03-31) Edgar Roock: Not working
- (2017-11-04) Ova Dex: One of the better ones I've tried. Only thing that bothers me is that when you first go to a page you get a brief flash of the full brightness of the page. If that were to be avoided I'd say it's nearly the perfect simple dark page extension.
