ANDA BIEN - Hice una prueba con un amigo que es daltónico, y vió muy parecida la imagen normal y otra con uno de los filtros. Recomendable.

U Can make a application?

Works Great, thanks

I DON'T THINK IT'S CORRECT I'm red-weak colourblind. A simulation of such colourblindness should make red darker, and this doesn't. In fact it makes it lighter. I've checked it by looking at SMPTE colour bars and a colour picker, and I think it's adjusting for my colour vision (as far as is possible) rather than simulating it for normal visioned people. I think the green options may be OK.

This extension is not supported anymore. This project is fully abandoned by the developer, see GitHub: https://github.com/LeonardoCardoso/Colorblinding I would like to warn everyone, this extension has some bugs and all have been fixed on GitHub only the developer doesn't want to push an update. My advice would be to use something else.

It's good

Working in 2019, on a Mac in Chrome - I don't see any issues others mention with runaway processor usage or shifting of objects (I suspect it was more likely triggering earlier verisons of Chrome that were known for their high cpu usage). I'm quite happy with its ability to demonstrate colorblind issues - full thumbs up!

Doesn't work. Uncaught ReferenceError: execute is not defined

Thanks for your effort on this. Helps a lot while designing websites.

Best tool, Thanks you so much!!!

Does not work

Amazing. Nice work!

No está mal, la calidad al ver videos disminuye un poco, pero está bien.

Kitty Hurley 2018-10-26

I depend on this nifty tool daily to ensure my interactive mapping applications meet all audiences color spectrum's. Highly recommended!

los cambios no son apreciables

Muito bom...recomendo a todos...

The CPU usage goes through the roof even when functionality is disabled. What does it do really apart from what's written? Or is it just bad code?

Mark Sandland 2018-01-18

Simulates colorblindness effectively, but also causes elements to move around on some pages.

Corey Turner 2018-01-03

I like it, but I'd prefer to have the options sorted by most common color blindness.

Max Aitkenhead 2017-11-06

Works great on most websites but doesn't seem to work on local html files, no good for developing unless its all ready hosted.

John Laur 2017-09-15

Although this extension does appear to simulate color vision problems, I wanted to give a caution to others. As noted by other reviewers, Colorblinding has high CPU use, the amount of memory it uses is very high (several hundred MB) and fluctuates rapidly, and it communicates over the network a good deal. This occurs even when the simulation is disabled. I cannot fathom any reason why it should do any of these things, and I am suspicious of it. The project is open source, so I am hoping to conduct some further research on why it does these things, particularly why it makes outgoing network connections.

Clarence Wee 2015-10-21

Does what it says on the label. However, the CPU usage went straight up even if I did not set colorblind mode on any of my tabs. On a Mac, Chrome 46.0.2490.71.

very interesting! thanks for making x
