• (2025-09-01) they are nice and u dont have to pay unless u want to but cool
• (2025-08-31) It's really buggy, both on Brave and Librewolf. It also shamelessly begs you for money when you install it. Go to chrome://flags and enable Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents. It's not perfect but at least it doesn't crash the page or show an unresponsive pop-up.
• (2025-08-31) It glitches turns my screen black very frequently when turned on. I even had to restart my computer to remove this.
• (2025-08-30) Working overall, god bless!
• (2025-08-27) Works and is free!
• (2025-08-27) This is an amazing plugin, it works 99.8% of the time which is a lot given the difficulty of the task! Darkened sites still look great and are much easier to work with. It takes a lot of work to keep these plugins up to date with the ever changing web and I'm glad this plugin is still going strong.
• (2025-08-26) Works everywhere, simple to use and with many configs if you need.
• (2025-08-25) Using it brave browsers, behaves same across all chromium browsers. There's a terrible bug on "invert listed only" I have to refresh pages twice after the first load for this extension to effect on each page. For example, I added the URL: https://www.bloomberg.com on "invert listed only" Now, say I am reading this page: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-08-22/meta-to-license-ai-lab-midjourney-s-tech-in-new-partnership I have to refresh it twice for this extension to take effect or to enable dark mode on that page!! Very annoying user experience. Keeps asking for donations while major functionalities are broken, annoying.
• (2025-08-25) I dont know why but it doesnt work, i have to keep refreshing the window untill it works which is annoying, is there any work around?
• (2025-08-23) best extension ever!
• (2025-08-21) Good
• (2025-08-19) Seems to work almost every site, EXCEPT THE STORE WHERE YOU DOWNLOAD IT!!!
• (2025-08-19) Yahoooo!!! Of all the dark mode extensions I've tried, this is the ONLY one that works on aliexpress.com and aliexpress.us AND it looks AliExpress look fabulous!
• (2025-08-17) Works great!
• (2025-08-14) Useful
• (2025-08-14) Hands Down One The Best I Have Used Thus Far' Don't Change It! It is Perfect the way it is. Thank You
• (2025-08-11) it's not worth that price.
• (2025-08-10) Is fine for most content, if the content doesn't include images, or particular html code, like with google docs. It inverts images when they should not be touched for Dark Mode, making them look terrible. It has been an issue for years but never addressed. My list of excluded sites is so long it's almost useless to me as an addon and I pray for my sites to just have native dark mode functionality.
• (2025-08-09) Takes forever to load, and blinds the vast majority of the screen before it does so, replacing it with a solid color. Even if the plugin is turned off or disabled for that specific website, it still does this. Done more harm than good.
• (2025-08-07) this is really good
• (2025-08-04) Suddenly stopped working on half of the sites I visit (google, yandex, etc.).
• (2025-08-02) full of bugs (always different ones), and dev never responds to emails from people who do his work for him and report them (with steps to reproduce).
• (2025-07-31) great
• (2025-07-31) Love this extension.
• (2025-07-29) Works very well. It also gives you the option to adjust the page brightness and contrast which I find very helpful.
• (2025-07-28) SHOULD NOT DEFAULT TO DARK MODE. If dark mode makes things worse for a particular website (which will OFTEN be the case), that puts the onus on users to IMMEDIATELY figure out how to disable it when they've just installed the plugin. That's a failing design defect for me.
• (2025-07-26) Worked instantly! Thanks!
• (2025-07-26) favs
• (2025-07-25) Do I have to pay to use Darkreader? Absolutely not.
• (2025-07-25) good
• (2025-07-23) The best dark mode conversion extension out there!!! Works flawlessly on most sites, rare occasions where it is not ideal are usually caused by sites stupid design decisions that hinder conversion algorithms
• (2025-07-22) Using Windows 10. The feature where it automatically switches depending on Windows' system theme (light/dark mode) does not work unless you manually toggle it, which defeats the automatic nature of it.
• (2025-07-20) peak the best
• (2025-07-17) It was working quite well, but recently it's started giving me serious problems. Aside from the "Repair extension" warning everyone's talking about, the biggest problem I'm experiencing is that on sites like YouTube that already have a dark theme, the page is completely black. Text, images, videos, nothing is visible. Everything is completely black. When I click on a video, the video doesn't even appear; it's still a black screen. On some sites, the bottom of the video doesn't even appear. These problems I mentioned aren't just happening on YouTube; they're happening on almost every site with a dark theme. I'll update my rating once you fix the issues. Please take note.
• (2025-07-17) Works for everything, EXCEPT the Chrome Web Store Extensions page where it comes from!!! I want ZERO white backgrounds, including the page the extension comes from.
• (2025-07-16) Best one so far!
• (2025-07-16) this extension saved my life
• (2025-07-16) Not working in Google Map recently.
• (2025-07-14) Does what it says from what I can tell, but I'm not sure I trust it. Their website talks about Pie Adblock as their "partner extension", and Pie is known to be fishy.
• (2025-07-11) It's the best option by far
• (2025-07-11) Most reliable dark theme extension on Chrome that doesn't screw up images. Not associated with the Dark Theme extension reported to be malware.
• (2025-07-10) Just to clarify and help other users: this extension HAS NOTHING TO DO with the "Dark Theme - Dark Reader" extension which was removed from the web store in the last few days because it was spreading malware!!!

• (2025-07-10) Great for eye strain and adapts to websites quite nicely
• (2025-07-03) Dark Mode Reader is a fantastic extension for anyone looking to reduce eye strain during late-night browsing. It offers various color options that go beyond a simple inversion of colors, making your browsing experience visually pleasing. It's especially helpful when many websites tend to blind you with bright backgrounds at night. However, I have encountered some significant drawbacks. The extension can really slow down Chrome, particularly if you have more than 5 tabs open. My processor often maxes out, resulting in frustrating lag times of 3 to 15 seconds where I can't do anything. Initially, I thought my computer was the issue, but after deactivating the extension, everything worked smoothly again. It would be beneficial for the developers to address this resource-intensive problem, perhaps by providing a warning in the help section or offering a way to quickly deactivate the extension to reduce resource usage (would just simply turn dark mode off or must you disable it in the settings?). Another lightweight version with basic functionality for those who want to use dark mode without compromising performance would be a great addition. Overall, Dark Mode Reader is a wonderful tool for protecting your eyes, but be mindful of its impact on your system's performance. Awareness of this trade-off can help users better plan their browsing experience.
• (2025-07-03) Great extension. Except you need a quantum computer to run it on. It does the job alright. Except if you have many tabs open, your Chrome will gradually become slower and slower and slower to a point you may want to throw it out the window. Of a skyscraper. As someone who is really patient, this really gets my blood boiling. Also, I am not one that will make the effort of putting a negative review, yet, here I am. To the developer: As a developer myself, sure, I would actually pay for this, as I need it. However, it's just not fit for multiple tabs a and long time use. I am under Linux with the latest Chrome. I also have a really decent Dell XPS 15 with 64 GB RAM, and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti. I've also tried it under Thorium. This also happens even if I have a list of allowed sites.
• (2025-06-29) God, was there any new update, pages are now so dark, the white text are irritating to look at! please fix this. updating this after 8 months in july 2025 and the issues are only rising. what is going on?
• (2025-06-29) it's a great extension, but lately it has been causing STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION when accessing certain pages such as https://www.linkedin.com/mynetwork/grow/. this has started happening with the new chromium builds 138.0.7204.49 and above.
• (2025-06-29) Must have to save time setting websites to dark mode. Usually works for almost everything.
• (2025-06-27) very nice extension like it because it free and work greate.
• (2025-06-27) It's magic!
