Extension overview

What this extension helps you do.

Web Night applies a comfortable dark experience to websites and can enable or disable night mode automatically on a schedule.

It is built for night reading, late coding, documentation browsing, dashboards, email clients, and users who prefer a softer web interface.

Core capabilities

  • Apply dark mode broadly across supported websites without site-by-site setup.
  • Use an automatic schedule to turn dark mode on and off at chosen times.
  • Preserve full-color photos, videos, logos, and graphics where possible instead of blindly inverting everything.
  • Whitelist sites that should keep their original appearance.
  • Toggle quickly with a keyboard shortcut and check current status through a toolbar badge.
  • Inject styles early to reduce bright-page flash during loading.

Practical workflows

  • Read articles, documentation, or dashboards more comfortably at night.
  • Let dark mode follow a daily schedule without manually toggling each evening.
  • Exclude sites that already have a good native dark mode or should remain unchanged.

Install and first use

  1. 1Install and enable: Turn on Web Night and browse most websites in a calmer dark style.
  2. 2Set your schedule: Choose when dark mode should start and stop automatically.
  3. 3Whitelist exceptions: Skip websites that already look better in light mode or use their own dark mode.
