### 2/5 — Meh

*2026-01-07, version 1.112*

Works for what it does. Subscription? You joking? A yearly fee for a browser extension I can get on my pc for free? And you want a yearly subscription for that? This whole app space is predatory as hell, man. It’s not enough to make and sell an app reasonably. You all wanna charge an unreasonable price and keep twisting it and do nothing for the same money every year. It’s pathetic!

### 1/5 — Некрасиво

*2025-07-27*

Покупал 3 года назад полную версию приложения и теперь оно пишет что нужно заново купить подписку, все функции перестали работать 👎

### 4/5 — Dark mode app

*2025-04-12, version 1.98*

Used to be able to buy this one time payment for lifetime. Now it’s monthly or yearly. I don’t like that. I got a new Apple ID and it’s not lifetime anymore.

### 1/5 — The biggest concern

*2025-04-03, version 1.98*

App works well but subscription base? Very Hard pass.

### 1/5 — I paid $5 for the opportunity to pay $1.99 / month?

*2025-03-08, version 1.96*

Come on Cletus, how does that make sense? Either make it a one time purchase or make it a subscription. No wonder this app has such poor ratings.

### 1/5 — 무료인줄알았는데

*2025-03-03*

트라이얼이네요

### 1/5 — not “free”

*2025-02-25, version 1.95*

after a while it said it expired?!

### 1/5 — Charging money from people for their eye health is absolutely disgusting and insanity.

*2025-02-19, version 1.95*

I have no words.

### 5/5 — Gooog

*2025-02-10, version 1.94*

Goog

### 5/5 — 굳

*2025-01-24*

가끔씩 구매했던 기록 사라져서 다시 복구해야하는게 귀찮긴 하지만 다크모드 중에선 이게 제일 괜찮은듯

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very limited free version

*2026-07-02, version 1.200*

You have to pay to use this app.

### 1/5 — You have to pay up…

*2026-05-29, version 1.121*

It was great… until you’re hit with a screen blocking notification when casually browsing saying “your trial has run out and you have to pay” and then it no longer works. 

I would highly recommend to users thinking about downloading this app to take a look around Reddit and other areas of the internet to find better alternatives if they do not wish to be forced to pay.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2026-02-10, version 1.112*

No good

### 1/5 — 다크모드

*2026-02-10*

구독중인데 오류가 ㅜㅜ또 구독하라고 하네요

### 1/5 — Don’t use it if you don’t want to be forced to pay stuff.

*2026-01-14, version 1.112*

While it is perfect to scroll through stuff in dark mode, the red bar notification that says “Your trial has expired” implies you need to pay in order to use this thing longer. Reviews didn’t tell me about this and neither as the app itself. Don’t use it if you are looking for free apps.

### 1/5 — What?

*2025-11-25, version 1.110*

Only 15 websites, and you have to pay weekly... At least do a monthly one, that's kind of absurd (especially to a 3rd world country)

### 1/5 — Abonnement payant, à boycotter

*2025-11-04, version 1.105*

Rédhibitoire, application soit-disant gratuite qui cesse rapidement de fonctionner en échange d’un abonnement de 16€ par an. À boycotter.

### 1/5 — Warning: paywall

*2025-10-31, version 1.108*

As soon as you download and enable this extension you only get to visit 15 websites before it shuts down.
Seriously why do we need to be charged money for this? It's a program that you made once, you don't need to be continuously getting money from it.

### 1/5 — Bilgilendirme

*2025-10-06, version 1.107*

15 web sitesi dolaştıktan sonra para istiyor. 
Asıl en büyük problem:
Göz atma geçmişiniz, kredi kartlarınız, telefon numaralarınız ve parolalarınız da dahil olmak üzere web sayfalarında hassa bilgileri okuyabileceğini ve değiştirebileceğini unutmayın. 
Ayarlar>safari>genişletmeler>Nitefall bölümünde yukarıdaki bahsettiğim izini kabul etmiş oluyorsunuz.
