Gut, aber kleine Probleme

Die App an sich funktioniert gut und ich bin zufrieden damit. Vor allem mit den verschiedenen Optionen zur Anpassung. Einziges Problem: auf gewissen Seiten wie z.B. Wikipedia funktioniert der Dark Mode gar nicht und man muss ihn über die Wikipedia-Funktion aktivieren. Dies trat auch auf anderen Seiten gelegentlich mal auf.

I am very disappointed!

I bought this app today and was very excited to use it. I turned the extension on Safari, and tested it out. The developer has forgotten to replace the text colour to white, so it stays black when the background is also black! Now, with the extension abled, I cannot even see what it says! As well as that, the background stays white on links when you click on a website on search results! It works on particular websites, but not search engines, like Google, Bing, Yahoo etc. I still have hope for it and I hope this is later fixed. If it is fixed, I shall change my review to 5 stars. I can’t say much else for this extension. It doesn’t work. I have no problems with my device whatsoever and I tried turning my iPad fully off then back on again, and it still doesn’t work. This maybe because of the iOS 18 update, but beyond that, there is nothing much else to say. If this review is still one star, I highly recommend you do NOT download this. If I have changed this review to 5 stars, then that means it has been fixed.
Edit: I have also found out from using it that when you press ‘Ignore Entire Site’ it doesn’t actually work after you go off then go back into it.

Great app

The only app I've ever bought, found it recommended on Reddit, and it's completely worth it. I just wanted to add a more recent review. The things people have mentioned in previous reviews have been fixed or updated, and the app runs extremely smoothly in my experience. I use it alllllllllll the time.

Response from developer

Dear user, Thank you for your review, I’m taking notes of all of them.The extension works very well for most of the websites out there in the wild. But if you have some websites that are not perfect, Dark Mode can offer some options: you can either add the site to the ignore list, or you can choose what sites Dark Mode to run on (only the sites that are rendered perfectly).If you have any questions, please write me to hello@alexdenk.eu and for sure I can assist you in any matter. Regards.
