- Rated 4 out of 5by Blargg, a month agoNice readability increase for common sites that stupidly use gray text. Usually works and I forget it's running. The occasional site can't have its text darkened. Working fine with uBlock Origin and NoScript on Android.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Barry, 3 years agoWorks well, except for sites which abuse the !important tag in their css. For example
the reviews on www.wilko.com. It's littered with !important tags. I was able to temporarilly make the pale grey text black by deleting one "!important" from a tag in the Firefox console, thus proving the point. Perhaps there's a way to override these evil tags in the addon? - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14707078, 3 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by xxjohndifoolxx, 5 years agoOption panel doesn't show options ! FF 78.0.1 x64 win10 here and last version of extension
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12450821, 7 years agoNice add-on except that the "Skip links", "Skip headers" options are broken as of Firefox 62? When enabled for all sites, it works but all headers and links turn black.

posted 7 years agoAll good here. Try uninstalling and reinstalling, the app might malfunction if you have updated.
If the issue persists, stay tuned as I'll be pushing an update (1.3.3) that addresses an issue with "Skip links" soon. - Rated 4 out of 5by Oscar, 7 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Stephen R, 7 years agoIronically, the icon is barely visible if I'm using a dark Firefox theme. ;-)

posted 7 years agoLol that’s ironic. Thanks for the heads-up, definitely going into the to-do-list. - Rated 4 out of 5by Hoggy, 7 years agoEven though this is said to be for dark text on light background, it also seems to work pretty well when using some addons for black/dark background with light text. Although it does have some problems/quirks.
When using the extensions "Night Mode Pro" or "Owl" (interchangeably on various websites, sometimes italicized/underlined text will turn black on the dark background.
For an example - when using "Night Mode Pro" on the following website: http://forum.luminous-landscape.com/index.php?topic=121095.new#new
It would also be nice if the toolbar button acted as a permanent on/off switch, and/or was settable according to website domain, subdomain, or url. It can get annoying to always have to switch it on when going to a new website - or even the same website in a new/different tab.
Still very helpful though, when needed.. Even for my dark/black backgrounds.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for the review. Also thanks for pointing out Night Mode Pro, I'm amazed by how well that extension compliments mine when using the "night mode" option that inverts the darkening into whitening.
That italics font issue doesn't seem to be dependent on my app, given that I don't have any special rules for italics. But I'll see if I can do something about it.
The new version is pretty much ready, coming with an options page where you can choose where to enable automatically (given a certain domain, URL, or simply a keyword), and a checkbox to just enable on every website altogether. Life is busy so It's been a long time coming. Expect it in a week or less - depending on the approval process time. - Rated 4 out of 5by Kyle, 8 years agoThis is super clean and useful, except when I am on a page that uses gray text on black background, in which case it makes everything black on black. It would be really awesome if there was the ability to select a custom color if I wanted to.
