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.

Very useful but basic bugs. With multiple open windows/tabs it applies itself to the current window/tab but then randomly to other windows at times. Google maps Print sometimes shows 'Preview failed' trying to print the page with enhanced contrast. Or page shows as enhanced contrast and Print cancels it just before printing and the usual faint maps page is printed. Reload map page fixes most issues.

Nadaje się jedynie do czytania w nocy. Bym używał negatywu ale problem jest iż wszystkie obrazki też daje w negatyw i nie da się na to patrzeć, dlatego też wielki minus za to. Pomysł dobry, ale wykonanie trochę słabe.

Okay when it works. Really improves a lot of soft/low-contrast sites, i.e. google maps. Sadly, there appears to be no automatic refresh when you enable/disable, so you must do a CTRL+F5 to refresh the site. A definite improvement, but needs work.

Good, but needs an option for tab specific. Some pages are good with High Contrast, others are not. Please allow the user to mix and match.

I find that it often stops working when I return to a browsing session after the computer has been asleep. Same with when I load a new tab. The page will load, flash horribly, then go back to regular mode. When it works, it helps me quite a bit, but the flashing is terrible for my poor photosensitive eyes, so I will likely have to try to find another program/extension.

I turned it off but it is inverting pages anyway. I will need to delete it. Also, inverting text is good, but inverting images is awful!

It also changes stuff in pages you turn it OFF for. I wanted to use it only for Ooona (an in-browser app we use at work) but when I turn it off in Facebook, still all user icons disappear. If you just want to be able to invert pages, there's an extension called Invert that inverts the screen and does nothing more than that.
