You''re literally amazing for this extension and it works beautifully - Rated 5 out of 5by Elliot, 2 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Malygris, 2 years agoEasy to use and works like a charm. Only thing it's missing is a way to easily adjust text colours, but that's built into Google Docs anyway so not really an issue. Ridiculous that Gdocs doesn't offer a dark mode natively but as long as that's the case, this plugin fills the gap nicely.

- Rated 1 out of 5by jr, 2 years agoSimply does not function. Has full permissions for docs.google.com, yet the addon says "Can't read and change data for this site". No changes happen regardless of what darkness setting I use. Other addons work fine.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15723434, 2 years agoContains icon replacements! The only external URL in the code is the donation link, so there's no security concerns. (inspected version 0.5.3)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Voidling, 2 years agoIDK if this is possible, but, I wish it would also darken the homepage for google docs, but otherwise this add on is so far amazing, after dealing with the burning brightness of light mode, I feel like my eyeballs are cured.
Developer response
posted 2 years agoThank you for your positive review! Although not currently being developed, dark mode for the Google Docs homepage is a long-term goal. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17728999, 2 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Graysongdl, 2 years agoOnly works on Google Docs "documents". While one would assume a dark mode extension for Google Docs would work for ALL services under the Google Docs umbrella, or at the very least Google Docs spreadsheets, it only works strictly with its namesake, which to me would be like adding a dark mode for YouTube videos, but thrusting the user back into light mode as soon as they view a YouTube livestream vod. Its description isn't incorrect, but it is just a bit misleading when I can still be on "docs.google.com" and not have a dark theme.
Doesn't even affect the colors on the main screen (where it lists your documents for you to choose which one to view), making it really jarring to switch between light and dark repeatedly.
I'm also surprised it doesn't have the ability to invert black text (to make it white) without also inverting all other colors. Works fine for grayscale colors, but when it also HAS to turn red text cyan, it makes it hard to view documents formatted by/for people who don't use this extension. The only fix for this is to turn ALL text grayscale, which might be fine for people who don't mess around with formatting very much, but not for me.
All in all, technically does what it advertises decently enough, but is lacking in features. I suppose I'll keep it installed just to darken the bar at the top if I can't find a better solution. - Rated 5 out of 5by Cameron, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Alynay, 2 years agoFantastic add-on, does all that it claims really well. The customization is amazing, I love how you can either enter a hex code or a color word like "red" or "mint".
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17628665, 2 years agoSimply works. Page was light, now it's dark. One toggle, no fuss. Assignment was understood.
- Rated 5 out of 5by tejasraman124, 2 years agoI absolutely love this extension! It finally makes Google Docs sane 🙂. I wish it had Sheets/Slides support though (and the slides should not be altered). Overall, this way is better than all those extensions that try to alter the page background though, so 10/10 , and this should be featured.
Thanks for giving GDocs a feature Word's had for years. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17671507, 2 years agoVery nice! A lot of "dark mode" add ons only change the background, not the doc, but this one does its job perfectly. UI is slightly changed, but I like it a little better tbh
