Overview

Product summary

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

This eye-care extension enables night mode by creating dark themes for websites on the fly. Dark Reader inverts bright colours to make web pages high contrast and easier to read.

Adjust brightness, contrast, the sepia filter, font preferences. Enable dark mode on every web page or give websites a sepia tone. Enable or disable Dark Reader for specific websites, automatically sync with system dark mode, or detect already dark websites and leave them unchanged.

This is the original Dark Reader extension. Since 2014, we continuously evolve alongside modern web technologies to deliver fast and reliable dark mode support for people sensitive to bright light.

Cannot inspect darkreader.org/support-us/ donation page to confirm it's purely voluntary and not a paywall
Cannot verify that 'Dark Reader Plus' (mentioned in some locale descriptions) is truly a separate product and not an upsell tier within this extension

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension itself is completely free with no feature gating, subscription, or payment processing. A voluntary 'Donate' button links to darkreader.org/support-us/ (ui/popup/index.js:1702, 6254-6275). The 'pay_for_using' message (line 152-153 in en/messages.json: 'Pay for using Dark Reader') is a voluntary donation prompt, not a paywall. No premium/pro tier exists within this extension. Some locale files (ja, ko) mention 'Dark Reader Plus' as a separate paid mobile product with premium UI themes, but that is a distinct external product, not a feature of this browser extension. No Stripe, billing API, license check, or subscription logic exists in the codebase.

Confidence: 95
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: No login, authentication, or account creation is needed. The extension operates entirely locally using chrome.storage for settings persistence. The 'login' keyword hits in source are false positives: 'logInfo' (debug logging at background/index.js:3549) and CSS 'token' parsing functions (background/index.js:1080-1886). The 'session' hit is sessionStorage for local UI state (inject/fallback.js:7). No account management, OAuth, or credentials flow exists in the codebase.
