Description from store Gmail Dark mode is a simple yet powerful extension that does not simply invert the colors of the page. It uses the powerful algorithm of Night Eye to properly convert the Gmail theme into a smooth and eye-caring dark theme. Why do you need Gmail dark mode? Dark mode can reduce eye strain, allow you to be more productive, and, most importantly, give you another layer of protection for your eyes. As we are spending more and more time in front of the screen, our eyes suffer the most from this. Obviously, there is no turning back; we will be spending most of our waking hours staring at screens. Thus something must be done to lift the heavy burden we are putting on our eyesight. The fact is that we are sending more and more emails, and pretty much all communication is done via email. E-mail is one of those online activities that can literally eat up half of your day. This is why improving how you handle email is a good starting point to minimize the pressure you put on your eyes every day. Does Gmail dark mode read my emails? Absolutely not! The extension only analyzes the colors of your page and converts them. It does not read, process, store, or do anything with your content. Can I enable dark mode on other websites? Gmail dark mode is specifically made for those who only want to have a dark theme on Gmail. To enable dark mode on any website, please check our other extension - Night Eye - www.nighteye.app Our website: https://nighteye.app/gmail-dark-mode Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/nighteye_ext Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/night.eye.extension

Latest reviews

(2025-06-03) Nate Rosso: Messes up email font colors (for example, produces light gray text on a white background), leading to complaints from recipients. Confirmed that RGB 0,0,0 is selected as email font color. Went through annoying DOE of painstakingly altering one setting at a time and sending emails to another account before confirming that this extension was the issue. Uninstalling immediately.
(2024-10-04) Walter Francis (Khaytsus): This just randomly inverses things, not useful
(2024-08-28) Paweł Garapich: Very nice, but it would be nicer if the sliders were also darker.
(2024-03-27) Jay Stephano: only wish it kept the right tag colours
(2024-03-15) Nicolas Recalde: Almost perfect, except that it changes tag colors in the sidebar ... and also changes my email signature, would give 5 if this gets fixed!
(2024-03-08) Emily Jimenez: Great mode only downfall is that the labels change color but I would recommend
(2024-03-03) Sean Vikoren: installed it opened the setting - waited a sec while it chewed my theme boom - pain gone
(2024-02-26) Igor - [ ᴛᴏᴘ ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡᴇʀ ]: Converts well
(2024-01-25) Clarisa HM: This is the only extension you'll need for your Gmail. Now, devs, when are you going to make one for Chrome Web Store?
(2023-12-19) moin: Finally, my eyes aren't hurting anymore!
(2023-12-06) Hamza Khan: Slow down entire gmail page
(2023-11-11) john palmer: Slows down my entire gmail, and makes updating messages to 'read' take 10-15 seconds, ended up removing it because it's just annoying.
(2023-01-07) Василий Петров: A pretty handy extension for my Gmail mailbox. I use it along with the dark theme of the system and browser. Of the advantages of the extension - you do not need to look for settings to enable a dark theme, it is instantly installed in the browser.

(2022-08-17) Luke Johnson: The extension did a good job of recoloring email backgrounds, fonts, and Gmail UI. However, it significantly slowed down the Gmail interface. When replying or forwarding an email, it would take up to 8 seconds to load up the compose screen. When I switched the extension off and reverted back to running Dark Reader for gmail.com, everything worked like normal again. I think this is a good extension because its chief goal is well-achieved -- it handles the restyling of emails very well. But it needs work on the performance end to make sure it doesn't slow down the interface.
