With the increased use of technology and screens, my migraines that were once manageable have become frequent. With turn off the light, I find that my migraines have become more manageable once again.

Garbage

Works when watching a video, thats about it

Frustrating is the best word to describe it

Prof SB on

This extension is great in theory but terrible in execution. The settings are laid out in a confusing way and difficult to understand. Then, once you get things working, it will sometimes behave in unexpected ways. For example, whenever I watch videos on ANY webpage—on YouTube, news sites, etc—the extension will just completely gray out the entire video whenever I maximize it and then NOT go back to normal when I un-maximize it! It’s so infuriating that I end up rage-disabling this extension 90% of the time because it’s basically impossible to figure out how to fix in the settings.

thanks uve been great.

Good app, great developer

Riverboat Roach on

I downloaded specifically so I could rate and review. No, I’m in no way associated with anyone or anything regarding the app. I’m in no way being compensated for this review (or any review for that matter). I’m sure it works fine over time and if it doesn’t, I’ll be sure to edit. Why do I feel confident in this? Because the dev has thoroughly answered all the 1&2 star “complaints”. I’m in an industry highly dependent on reviews, as well. It’s rare that I receive anything less than a 5, but it happens. When I looked a week ago, I had just passed the 13,000 mark. I’ve noticed one correlation that I feel qualified to relate here: dumb people give the worst ratings. They don’t understand something, it makes them angry and they need to assign blame because they also don’t understand they’re brain is the problem. It results in unfair reviews that can greatly affect the lives of those who have put in countless hours of work. Usually, the person leaving a bad review DIDN’T READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. Some of us don’t have to, but if you’re a slowpoke, take the time to read before 1 starring and looking like a moron in a public forum.

After one week of using got stuck on…

M.Erickson on

Got stuck on “on switch” on every web page after one week of use and had to delete the app because the options page wouldn’t even open. I have a lot of tech experience. I have programmed before. I have worked out kinks in websites with my old college tech support when they needed help. Could not figure out how to troubleshoot and get it to work even after deleting and reinstalling or turning it off and on in the safari extensions menu. The website still wouldn’t pull up and let me change the options to even see why it was stuck on so I couldn’t see any of my webpages because they were all greyed out when I have this app installed. Needs troubleshooting on the developers end and then I will update my review.

Useless

Useless

Dims Screen only

thatrikan on

The extension only puts a dark filter over the webpage and then anytime you click on something on the screen it removes the dark filter and iit becomes bright white again.

Works like a charm!

I had an issue where Google (in Safari) kept ignoring my preferences for dark mode. After downloading this and having it be in charge, I have had no problems. This app works great and solved an annoyance that I’ve been dealing with for months. Also, as a note, please read all their instructions and watch the videos that pertain to you. Most of the bad reviews likely would have been solved by just paying attention.
