DarkTube AI

Hybrid AI Dark Mode for YouTube

DarkTube AI transforms your viewing experience by using artificial intelligence to "smartly" darken your screen. Unlike basic extensions that just add a black overlay, DarkTube AI analyzes the visual content to apply the darkening effect intelligently, ensuring reduced glare and eye strain without compromising the viewing quality. If you need specific details to remain bright—like a code snippet in a tutorial or a person presenting—you can use the Custom Protection Zones to manually mark areas that should stay 100% visible. CORE FEATURES: 🧠 AI Smart Darkening: Uses machine learning algorithms to intelligently apply dark mode, optimizing the dimming effect for visual comfort rather than just applying a flat black screen. 🛡️ Custom Protection Zones: Gives you full control. Draw specific areas on the video or page that you want to remain bright and unaffected by the darkening effect. 👁️ Reduced Eye Strain: Perfect for late-night viewing or long study sessions, reducing the harsh light from bright backgrounds. ⚡ Instant Toggle: Easily switch the intelligent dark mode on or off with a single click via the popup menu or integrated button. PRIVACY & SINGLE PURPOSE: DarkTube AI is designed with a Single Purpose: to provide a comfortable, intelligent video watching experience. No Bloat: We do not block ads, download videos, or modify the YouTube interface (except for the toggle button). Privacy First: This extension does not track your viewing history or collect personal data. Focus: It does not provide any functionality unrelated to dark mode. How to use: Install the extension. Open any YouTube video. Click the icon to activate AI Smart Darkening. (Optional) Draw "Protection Zones" over areas you want to keep fully bright.
