Dark Night Mode is a Free Open Source Software which makes all the websites you browse into dark/night mode so that you can browse the internet without straining your eyes. It is an extremely useful chrome extension for those who use internet especially at night.
We use a unique algorithm to apply dark mode to all the websites in real-time as you browse. It basically detects the color of each element of a website and intelligently converts it to a darker shade. Bright colors are darkened at more intensity than dark colors so that most of the colors are preserved. Unlike other similar extensions, we do NOT invert the colors, so black websites will not change its color into white. An added benefit is that the images will also not be distorted! I think we were hit by the one-star-bot-ratings because we were the only extension to have this intelligent-algorithm. Now, after this extension became popular, one another super famous extension have copied this feature of ours.
We have also put immense effort in eliminating the flashes of bright white screen while loading different websites. It was a challenging task due to the limitations of chrome, but we were able to eliminate this problem with 99.9% success rate.
Using the brightness slider, you can adjust the brightness of your browser beyond what your computer's brightness adjuster allows. This is useful in dimming the brightness to your likening. For example, by default the images are shown with normal color, but you can darken it by sliding down the brightness slider.
There is also an Auto mode which will automatically turn on the Dark Mode at night 8:00PM and will turn off at morning 6:00AM. It was complicated to develop an option to customize this timing, but we are working on it and may add this option in the future versions.
There is also Whitelist feature which can be helpful if you do not want the dark mode to work on certain websites.
Since this extension will darken all the websites you visit at night, you will initially not enjoy it due to the huge change in your routine. However, our internal studies have shown that people start getting used to it after about three weeks of use. Some people have claimed that this extension helps them sleep better while some others have said that it helped them reduce the burning sensation in their eyes caused by extensive browsing of the internet in the dark.
This plugin is NOT 100% perfect. It never will be perfect because many websites are developed in a non-standard fashion and there is no easy way to detect a site and perfectly change its colors in real time withing milli-seconds so that the user do not see the bright colors. It is a double edged sword - If we add more conditions to make the algorithm smarter, then it will affect the processing speed and the user will see flashes of white light, so we had to make some choices to get an optimal balance.
If you want your browser window to also look black similar to how it is shown in the screenshots, then you must install a Dark Chrome theme as well. We suggest to search "Morpheon Dark Theme" and install it in google chrome.
It took us - two developers two whole months of full time developmental efforts to conceptualize, design, code, test, calibrate and deploy this extension. We had initially started it as a side project aiming to make it in couple of days, but it ended up taking significantly more time than expected! We hope you enjoy it.

- (2025-07-09) argo cruz: can you add sensor for web page brightness if it is too high, so it automatically balance it.
- (2025-06-10) dracula: Very good but glitchy on some websites.
- (2025-05-17) Agata S.: I really like it and would love to donate, but I can't find any direct link. :(
- (2025-03-07) badmoose01: Probably the best dark mode plug in from the webstore. Only issue is it kind of kills all the functionality on X.com on the Brave browser for some reason but It's easy enough to whitelist the site from the extension's interface.

- (2024-07-04) Conor Healy: pretty good so far only couple sites had problems loading media when turned on. Could be my fault but the chrome web store doesn't black out but no biggie.
- (2024-05-13) matt mcnally: Perfect and worked on every website I visited
- (2024-03-22) Joseph Carter: my spacebar clicker broke
- (2023-12-29) -neil-: I want some webpages dark, I want some webpages light. Sometimes, I want particular webpages light, sometimes I want the same webpages dark. I don't expect any extension -- that doesn't have ESP -- to know what I want. I find Dark Night Mode (DNM) to be the best solution. In Chrome, I keep the DNM icon in the extension tool bar. If I want "the other mode," it's easy enough to click on the icon and toggle between dark and light. And of course, there is a Whitelist to keep any domain from going dark. DNM has a few other fuctions, Totally disable, re-enable, and a brightness adjustment for Dark mode. A+

- (2023-01-08) Taras: Works well but does not include styles for visited URLs which make visited links to look similar to new ones in the dark mode. Had to add the following styles into the extension global-new.css file to make visited links to look differently: html > body[class] a:visited,html > body[class] a[class]:visited { color: #c58af9 !important; }

- (2022-10-06) Der Jens: Superb, exactly what I was looking for. I'm super tired and just wanted to google something and it burned my retinas. Quick fix, but only installed it like 15 minutes ago. Seems to do what it's supposed to. Some sites look a little funny or won't show properly due to overlaid popups but it can be easily disabled and enabled again and has a whitelist feature, so its not a big problem. I like it.

- (2022-08-29) Jes: Though I really hate downloading and using extensions that are a bit shady but at least for now it's working "right". I don't recommend it because it might have suspicious code implemented. Just bear with the portable sunlight if you can.
