Dark mode for those long nights working on Google Docs!
This extension changes the style of Google Docs to a dark theme that is easier on the eyes and looks cooler :)
The dark mode and page color can be toggled from the controls on the top right of the page.
1.5.1 Update:
- Controls are now draggable, no more getting in your way!
- Improved visibility for top bar icons and word count window.
- Striving to be a better person, each day.
If you found this extension useful you can also try my extension for dark mode on google drive: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-drive-dark-mode/mhlhbpejnmlkaiaggagblklodbbldmmc
Thank you kindly for all your donations <3

- Serves it's purpose exactly. Images are accurate. Contrary to some reviews I've read, the functionality of Google Docs is not hindered. I only wish that other Google Doc file stuffs are also made dark mode, but it only applies to docs. 4/5 stars.

- my favourite google docs dark mode extension. the contrasts are perfectly balanced, and you can yourself choose whether the interface, the page or both is in dark mode. I love that the colours used by this extension are not too pitch dark, but are instead very comfortable for prolonged use in longer working sessions. It really suits my eyes

- Be warned - this interferes with the normal functionality of Google Docs. After installation, this extension disabled the page navigator of online Word docs (i.e., the little bar that says you're at page 5 of 250). It became impossible for me to grab the page navigator and pull it down to quickly jump between sections of a large document. The pointer would no longer latch on to it for some reason. So now, if I want to reach page 132, I have no choice but to manually scroll ONE PAGE AT A TIME. I'd have to click Page Down over a hundred times to get to where I want to go!! At first I thought maybe the extension's icons were overlapped on the page navigator, but nope - this kept being a problem even when I moved them. As soon as I uninstalled this extension, I was able to quickly navigate my documents again. I want a dark screen, but not at the cost of existing Google Docs features. I wouldn't get this again unless this issue was fixed.

- Saved my life. This extension works perfectly and does what it was designed to do. 10/10 Saved my eyeballs.

- Thought it didn't work at first, turns out I just needed to refresh my Google Docs. Definitely makes it easier on the eyes, but my colors are also inverted (e.g. orange -> blue).

- I am wondering where has this been! Thank you for such an easy to use add on that helps darken the area around the doc or the doc itself. Super helpful with making it easy on the eyes.

- You have to go to a completely different website, and install a plugin instead of it being a setting? Billion dollar company btw...

- Doesn't work for me. I'm on windows 12 with the latest version of Chrome. When I click the extension there is a slight pause but no submenu (as shown on youtube) and no on/off toggle. Disappointing, maybe there will be an update.

- People are not using it properly, most people are just pressing the sun icon and turning it into the moon, they also have to press the page icon which turns the page black. I honestly like the fact that it allows us to choose if we want the entire thing in black or just the page. I just wish the background was a darker color too like microsoft word is. Overall its pretty good

- It just inverts the colors in a kind of unpleasant way, and has a tacky interface you have to shoo away, and even after that it still looks weird. It is dark though.

- this is the best! should be rated 5!

- All it does is turn on high contrast mode for only docs

- Does what it says it does. For people saying it doesn't work, refresh. For people saying everything is dark except the page, no. Hover over the moon icon to reveal the bar, you'll see a page icon under the moon, click it, that's how you can change the color of the page. 👍

- There needs to be a setting option to permanently move the floating toolbar. In its current default position, you cannot use the Find feature in a GoogleDoc and then close out that menu, because the Dark Mode tool bar obstructs it.

- lot of people are complaining the page iself remains white... you need to refresh if you haven't already mouse over widget to he right op corner and when it drops down click the second button below it... that makes the page black

- downloaded this extension. uninstalled shortly after because i didn't like it. despite me removing it, it still attempts to function on not only google docs, but any website you can think of. this isn't a huge issue, but it feels super suspicious, and is also just generally annoying. the permissions you give the extension when downloaded only apply to google docs, so why is it doing this on other websites? this issue could be because i'm using microsoft edge, but it's an issue nonetheless.

- While it kinda worked, it doesn't seem to gell well with the Tabs feature. At least I only wanted this for Docs, and not other Google Drive apps like Sheets which other reviewers have complained this doesn't work for - this is meant to be for the document editing app only, which I understood when I tried it.

- Pretty good, SAVES MY EYES AT 1 AM! Just the buttons on the right can be hard to control, so don't be worried if the doc isn't dark(yet). Just reload ur docs and then click the second from the top to make the darkness happen. This rly should have more stars here tho. DOWNLOAD THIS NOW TO NOT GET MYOPIA(or headaches_)

- Doesn't work. Everything is dark except the document itself, which is still bright white.

- IMPORTANT - for everyone who says it doesn't do anything; try refreshing google docs. I had the same when I downloaded it, but reloaded google docs and now it works great.

- So it makes the background dark but my doc and the selections are still white.

- Works fine. I just wish I could adjust the color of the buttons, and adjust the page to more of a dark grey, rather than full-on black

- While scrolling it can cause issues like copy hidden comments into your documents. Really annoying.
