Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

High Contrast lets you browse the web with your choice of several high-contrast color filters designed to make it easier to read text.

When you install this extension, all pages are "inverted", so black becomes white and white becomes black. Press the "browser action" icon in the toolbar to toggle it on and off, or customize your settings on a per-site basis. Use a convenient keyboard shortcut to quickly change your settings while your browse.

Other extensions try to change the default colors, but this ends up breaking many popular websites. Only this extension applies filters to your page that invert almost everything - the only exception is photos, which are left alone.

Also note that the Chrome web store and other built-in pages like the New Tab page and Settings pages are unaffected - extensions like this one are not allowed to modify them, by design.

too many bugs

I downloaded this specifically for working on text documents on Google Docs and Grammarly. When it works, it works well enough. True to its name, it makes things high-contrast, which means that even in the Inverted color scheme, stuff is brighter than it needs to be. There's one other major problem that I've found. If you load a Google Drive/Docs page in a new window and that window isn't the focus, the extension simply doesn't work. You can disable and re-enable it and you can fiddle with the settings, but nothing happens. Why do I have to keep my eyes GLUED to a webpage for it to turn dark? That kind of defeats the purpose, for me. Honestly, I'm better off just using this for Grammarly and using a bookmarklet for other stuff…

High Contrast, along with Ctrl/+, Ctrl/-, and Ctrl/0 is a major eyesight saver for me with Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration. I found some months ago, because Facebook changed the way it handled some images on user home pages, user profile pictures disappeared, and just today, I discovered that it was related to High Contrast. It needs to be disabled (not removed) when viewing Facebook pages, to show user profile pictures (which appears in a circle in the header background at the top of the page.) Otherwise, a great extension!

It would be perfect if it worked as described, however, even though it explicitly states "photos/pictures are unaffected? every photo I have in Google Photos became an x-ray when extension is enabled

You have to turn it on site by site, so you get blinded with light while you scramble to turn it on. It doesn't work on some pages.

Despite the privacy implications of this extension (it's owned by Google), I like using it for the fact that I like the contrast it provides. A suggestion to make it even more useful would be to provide an option where the increased mode does not get applied to the images on the page. The contrast on the images makes it extremely difficult to read charts and other readable elements on it.
