Night Mode: Dark Mode for Any Website
The Night Mode switch turns every bright page into a comfortable dark theme
Want dark mode everywhere, not only on sites that offer it? The free Turn Off the Lights browser extension adds a dark mode switch to every website you visit. Click the switch once and the white page converts to a dark theme with inverted, readable text. Click it again and the page returns to normal. That is Night Mode: real dark mode for any website.
Dark mode even where sites do not offer it
Many websites still have no dark mode option at all. Night Mode works on YouTube, Google, news sites, and thousands of other pages: the switch sits at the bottom-left of the screen, follows you as you scroll, and never blocks what you are reading. Day view and dark mode are always one click apart.
Not the same as your browser or OS dark mode
The dark mode built into your browser or operating system only darkens the interface and websites that already support a dark theme. Night Mode goes further: it forces a dark theme on every website, even ones that were never designed for dark mode. And it works in every browser, from Google Chrome and Firefox to Safari, Opera, and Microsoft Edge.
Customize your dark theme
Night Mode applies a lightweight CSS conversion, so nothing is installed per site and the dark theme is fully restylable: white text on black, yellow text on a cool dark blue, or your own combination. For site-specific dark themes see Dark Mode for your favorite websites, such as YouTube dark mode and Google dark mode. For automatic dimming on a schedule, combine it with Eye Protection.
How to enable dark mode on a website
- Install the free Turn Off the Lights extension for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, Safari, or your favorite browser.
- Right-click the gray lamp button, choose Options, and enable Night Mode so the dark mode switch appears on every page.
- Click the switch at the bottom-left of any page to turn it into dark mode. Click again to return to day view.
