- Rated 5 out of 5by Luz, a year agoI contacted the creator for help with a minor bug involving the coloring for published assignments, and he fixed it in less than a day!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17955339, a year agoEasy to use and doesn't just invert the colors like other extensions.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17802443, 2 years agoExcellent Extension, can we have the ability to set cusotm images for our courses locally? Some courses don't have images as teachers are unaware of how/lazy etc... If we could locally upload some custom images for courses, perhaps local renaming aswell? That would be awesome! Maybe under an 'advanced settings' option.

posted 2 years agoI think thats a cool idea, I'll look into implementing it. Thanks for rating
Edit: This feature is in the new update, let me know if you encounter any issues with it, and again thank you for the suggestion - Rated 5 out of 5by Triston Oswald, 2 years agoFantastic add-on, love this on Chrome too! Custom dark modes for sites I use all the time are always nice to find. It would be nice if the "Dashboard Grades" toggle worked even if "Dashboard Assignments" is turned off.
Edit: The dashboard grades feature was added. Incredible! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17657507, 2 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by jax, 2 years agothis is a great extension and i've been using it for quite a while, but as of 8/4/22, right after update 5.0.1, it doesn't work whatsoever for me :( it's as if i don't have it installed at all (tried reinstalling, repasting URL, and logging out of canvas, nothing helped). hopefully they can get it fixed soon, b/c this is one of my favorite add-ons!
edit: my issue is fixed as of 8/8/22. dev is very nice and helpful :)Developer response
posted 2 years agoThanks for letting me know about this, I want to fix this asap. Can you email me (ksucpea@gmail.com) so I can get more information? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16789623, 3 years agoVery useful & interesting features, love the newer more customizable options
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17072626, 3 years agoWorks well and canvas is now easily not hurting my eyes because of the default light mode.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15097235, 4 years agoDark Mode looks good - better than any of Dark Reader's modes for the Canvas site.
The assignment list is going to be VERY useful for me, wow. Nice one. The gradients are a nice touch too.
I'm not sure how the link preview feature works - I tried a few different kinds of pages with links without ever seeing a "show link" button appear. Maybe another extension of mine is interfering or this feature is outdated.
I can see the appeal of the GPA calculator but it's not for me. (it is by semester/quarter) My ideal Canvas extension would have a button on the grades page, to tell you which assignments you must do well on to pass the class, taking into account the weight of different assignment groups and assignments that haven't been graded yet. But that's just an ideal.
To me this extension is worth it for the assignment list alone. I have poor internet speeds where I live, so it is a chore to load Canvas pages just to check due dates.
