Night Reader

Reading comfortably with inverted brightness but preserved hue

Night Reader - Invert Website Brightness

Night Reader is a Firefox add-on that eases your eyes by inverting the brightness of webpages. It applies the CSS filter invert to the document root, providing a general solution. Images are displayed normally, and hue rotation is applied to preserve visual appearance. Additional features include a domain-based blacklist, customizable CSS rules, and keyboard shortcuts.

User reviews


Has this extension been abandoned?? Thought I had found a perfect global dark extension for Firefox only to notice the issue with Google Maps and some other sites. It's incredibly frustrating as it's otherwise excellent. Really hope the developer is able to fix a few little bugs :)

In comparison to a bigger one that have the invert mode, it inverts less items.
