i have both poor vision and photosensitive epilepsy, this extension and the ability to toggle is AMAZING especially because you can set it to not do its thing on certain websites. i messed with my computer settings for hours and nothing proved to be as useful as this extension in making me able to *see* without causing issues with my photosensitivity. in fact i can even use it to help my photosensitivity due to the greyscale features. honestly the only good accessibility extension i have seen...

Let's hope the developer upgrades to MV3 or come January we won't be able to run this extension in the latest Chromium browsers which includes Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, and more.

This otherwise great app has one problem. Enabling High Contrast changes the colors on the page, not just bolding the text. Amazon's yellow buttons become orange.

There are numerous other switches there to play with, too, but they seem to be set to a favorable default and I left them alone. The extension now worked on Gmail, Google search screens and web pages, but it doesn't work on this or other primary Chrome ... Show more

Such a useful add on for me as a neurodivergent person. Thank you to the developer for working on a quick fix.
