About Gmail Dark Mode

Gmail Dark mode is a simple yet powerful extension that does not simply invert the colors of the page. It uses the powerful algorithm of Night Eye to properly convert the Gmail theme into a smooth and eye-caring dark theme. Why do you need Gmail dark mode? Dark mode can reduce eye strain, allow you to be more productive, and, most importantly, give you another layer of protection for your eyes. As we are spending more and more time in front of the screen, our eyes suffer the most from this. Obviously, there is no turning back; we will be spending most of our waking hours staring at screens. Thus something must be done to lift the heavy burden we are putting on our eyesight. The fact is that we are sending more and more emails, and pretty much all communication is done via email. E-mail is one of those online activities that can literally eat up half of your day. This is why improving how you handle email is a good starting point to minimize the pressure you put on your eyes every day. Does Gmail dark mode read my emails? Absolutely not! The extension only analyzes the colors of your page and converts them. It does not read, process, store, or do anything with your content. Can I enable dark mode on other websites? Gmail dark mode is specifically made for those who only want to have a dark theme on Gmail. To enable dark mode on any website, please check our other extension - Night Eye - www.nighteye.app Our website: https://nighteye.app/gmail-dark-mode Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/nighteye_ext Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/night.eye.extension
