Overview

Dark mode for every website with automatic detection, custom site profiles, brightness controls, schedules, and local settings.

Give every website a comfortable dark mode with DarkM8, a lightweight Chrome extension designed to make browsing easier on your eyes without making the web harder to use. DarkM8 transforms bright pages into balanced dark experiences while preserving readable text, images, borders, and visual hierarchy. Instead of applying one harsh filter across an entire page, it intelligently remaps visible colours for a calmer, more natural result. Choose how DarkM8 behaves on every website. Auto mode detects websites that already provide their own dark theme and leaves them unchanged. On mode always applies DarkM8, while Off mode keeps the selected website untouched. Your choice is remembered automatically for each domain. Create custom appearance profiles for individual websites. A reading site can use lower brightness and softer contrast, while a dashboard can stay sharper and brighter. Adjust brightness, contrast, warmth, and image dimming independently, then return to your global defaults whenever you want. Set your preferred appearance once for the wider web, or fine-tune sites that need special treatment. Changes update across your open tabs, helping your browsing experience remain consistent without repeated setup. DarkM8 also includes an optional night schedule. Choose when dark mode should activate and let the extension follow your routine automatically. A convenient keyboard shortcut makes it easy to toggle DarkM8 for the current website without interrupting your workflow. The toolbar popup keeps essential controls close at hand. See the current website, select Off, Auto, or On, create a custom site profile, and make quick visual adjustments from one compact interface. Additional settings include excluded websites, global appearance controls, scheduling, and a local broken-site report builder. Your settings and website profiles stay in Chrome's local extension storage. DarkM8 does not require an account, subscription, or remote profile service. Your browsing preferences remain on your device and are used only to provide the dark mode experience you configure. Chrome protects internal pages, extension pages, and the Chrome Web Store from visual changes by extensions. DarkM8 clearly identifies these protected surfaces instead of presenting controls that cannot work. Whether you browse late at night, work in dim environments, experience sensitivity to bright pages, or simply prefer darker interfaces, DarkM8 gives you practical control without unnecessary complexity. Use it at home, at work, or while travelling, with simple controls that remain familiar wherever you browse. Install DarkM8 and enjoy a calmer, customizable dark mode across the websites you use every day.
