Google Inbox Dark Skin
Extension Delisted
This extension is no longer available in the official store. Delisted on 2025-09-16.
Darkens the Google Inbox page to an easy on the eyes skin.
Hand-picked colors to reduce eye strain, this isn't just an inversion skin, I custom designed the colors here to look pretty while being gentle on the eyes. Enjoy.
v0.2: Fixed styling with email compose, and disabled email reformatting. Emails now appear just as received.
v0.3: All emails are now in dark theme too, more style fixes.

Bust. The current version doesn't doesn't make my inbox dark at all after installation.
It doesn't work. The section where the email is stays white while the border around it is dark. That doesn't help me at all!
Some people had issues getting it to work before, but the updates seem to have fixed all of their gripes because names are clearly legible, the theme is beautifully dark and it works wonders.
Doesnt work!

It's working perfectly fine for me, maybe it's been updated since the previous reviews. Looks great though

Good
I like the look, but the names in my hangouts panel are dark. After you click, they turn white against the dark background so you can read it...but that means you have to click to see the name.
straight up just doesn't work.
Does what it says. However it doesn't grey out the contacts' names in hangouts sidebar. Could you please fix that ?
flat out doesn't work.

Awesome, does exactly as expected. Don't have any of the problems other are having.
Does what it says, except when you have the menu selected on the left side, the main email frame background changes to white again. Wish that would stay dark gray like the rest.
Loaded today for Inbox by Google (not work on the old Gmail). So far it's great, very attractive. Nice to get away from all that bright white.
It works the first time you load the page but never after that. I love the colors, it's beautiful. Wish they would fix it to work every time you load inbox.
Works well. Just what I needed for Inbox. I wonder if other users are attempting to use this with gmail as opposed to Inbox....
