Или тёмное на тёмном, или светлое на светлом. На сайте ДНС так вообще пропадает текст в описании. Некоторые эффекты сайтов отображаются некорректно. Но я жмот чтобы купить более качественное расширение ### 5/5 — I knew so little about this extension … *2025-11-09, version 4.6* I’ve been using this extension for a couple of years now. I thought it was pretty useful but never anything particularly special. I had a few minutes to spare today and I took the time to read through the update notes for the update that I’m about to install (10 November 2025). It seems that I knew nothing about this extension! It is capable of so much more than I could possibly have imagined. I don’t know if I even understand everything that is possible with it. I’m not giving up on it because I don’t understand it. I’m just going to have to learn more. That should be good for my brain and to help stave off any problems with dementia. That’s what I’m told, anyway. Work your brain and keep it active and that will help you in the long term. Thanks, Mr. Developer. ### 5/5 — Lights Off Please *2025-11-06* I love this app. Just like a phone being turned on in a theatre, light takes away from the movie experience. Turn off the lights darkens the light from all sides off your screen, giving you more of a “pass the popcorn” experience right on your iPad. ### 1/5 — Turn off lights *2025-11-04, version 4.5.7* First test. ### 5/5 — 今、1番夢中になってます‼️ *2025-10-28* あまり、知識がある訳では無いので、気づけば、何時間やってんの❓って感じです。 どうしても、💡ボタンを出したい‼️やり方がむずいよー ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 화면 전체를 어둡게 할 뿐 전혀 쓸모가 없습니다. *2026-08-28, version 4.6.6* 사파리 화면에 검정색 어두운 필름을 올려둔 것 처럼 작동합니다. 게다가 화면을 어디든 클릭하면 다시 원상태로 돌아옵니다. 이런걸 왜 만들었는지 모르겠네요. ### 1/5 — Now Broken? *2026-08-15, version 4.6.6* Used to work really well, but maybe the new iOS 26.6 broke it…no longer shows up in my settings (in Safari extensions) for me to enable/disable. Hope they fix it soon so I can enjoy online stories again. ### 1/5 — Beware *2026-07-04, version 4.6.6* Malware ### 1/5 — Wasted time *2026-04-28* Coz it cannot dim e-commerce website! Ain’t that basic for the name of this app? ### 1/5 — My hackers favorite tool *2026-04-02, version 4.6.6* I personally never use it!!! ### 1/5 — doesn’t work on ipad *2026-03-26, version 4.6.6* i want to love this but it just straight up does not work on literally any webpages despite having it enabled. happy to change my review if something changes but i literally see no change to any pages with it on. :( ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-03-09, version 4.6.6* Doesn’t work as per screenshots ### 1/5 — Pop up parade *2026-01-12, version 4.6.3* Lured in by free extension and no data collection.
