Noir is a Safari extension that automatically adds a dark mode to every website you visit. It makes browsing the web at night so much better. With Noir, you won’t be blinded by bright websites ever again. And the results look great too. Noir generates a custom dark style for each website you visit, based on the colors that are used on a page. You won’t even notice this happening in the background – that’s how fast it is – but you’ll certainly appreciate the end result: a beautiful dark mode tailored for each website, where contrast is preserved and highlights still pop. And with over 20 built-in themes and the ability to create your own, you can customize the results exactly the way you want. Noir works with any website you visit in Safari, automatically. By default, Noir is linked to your device’s Dark Mode, so websites will only go dark when you want them to. But you can easily customize this to your liking, even per website. Only want to use Noir on just a few specific websites? Sure thing! Disable Noir on some websites? No problem! Built from the ground up for iOS and iPadOS, the app feels right at home on your device. It supports the brand new Safari web extension feature, which means there’s no need to manually activate it every time you load a new page. The app also tightly integrates with system features such as Shortcuts, Control Center, Focus Filters, and Widgets to fully integrate Noir in all your workflows. And your settings are automatically synced to all your devices using iCloud. And just as importantly, Noir takes your privacy seriously: it doesn’t collect any of your browsing data. Period. Noir is made by an indie iOS developer. It does not include any subscriptions or ads. Buy Noir once, use it forever. Notes: • Found a website where Noir’s dark mode doesn’t look just right? Let me know by reporting it. The app will be frequently updated to address issues that are reported. Privacy Policy: • The Noir extension requires access to the websites you visit to analyze the existing style of the page and to override it with Noir's dark style. • Noir never collects your browsing data. The only data Noir ‘collects’ are your settings, and those will never leave your device or iCloud account. • You can read Noir’s full Privacy Policy at https://getnoir.app/privacypolicy

Nice colours

Loving the colours used for the dark mode. It makes using the phone in the night a lot better!Only suggestion I have is to have a button to allow us to easily toggle it on or off. There’s an extra step to go through (to toggle it off) which is a bit annoying. I prefer to use dark mode all the time for iOS, but during the day, I’d like to have Noir off and only on during the night. Being able to quickly switch it on or off without relying on iOS dark mode setting would be awesome.

Thank you for your review! Noir integrates with the built-in Shortcuts app of iOS. This allows you to automate toggling Noir. You can also add this shortcut to your home screen, for example, or use it with Siri. I hope this helps!

Noir works well on my iPad and does just what I want, allowing me to darken those web pages which are overly bright with large white areas, even dimming images if required. The developer is responsive and gives good support with regular fixes and worthy updates. The app is continually improving.Noir is reasonably priced and is not a greedy subscription based product and also does not have any adverts or pester screens.I am rarely so pleased with an app and highly recommend it.

As usual with such extensions it’s hit and miss, when in most cases it works while on some web apps fail, without an option to selectively disable website via plugin config, you’d eventually drop the extension alltogether just because of some websites being more broken. Please add a feature to remove sited by domain, otherwise it’s a big hassle to use native Ask permissions that’s set per each site individually to enable.UPDIt’s fixed now, thanks for s quick response!

Thank you for your review! If you tap the aA button in the address bar, then tap 'Noir', the Noir menu will open. Here you can disable Noir on that specific domain.I hope this helps! Additionally I'll keep improving Noir with each update!

I prefer using dark mode in 80-90% of situations and this app is perfect for that I’ve been using it for years and bought it across my MacBook + iPhone. It’s definitely worth it.Only thing I would say that can be improved is perhaps further optimisation with how the website looks since sometimes pages, texts and other elements simply disappear with dark mode enabled meaning I have to switch it off to use a website.

Hi there! I'm happy to introduce the latest version of Noir. If you enjoy Noir, please consider leaving a review for the app on the App Store! # Advanced Appearance Options Noir now includes new advanced appearance options that let you fine-tune how Noir's dark theme looks on a website. You can disable dynamic colors, hide all background images, and disable image inversion. To keep Noir as simple as possible for users who don't need these options, you first have to enable these new options in the Advanced Settings inside the Noir app. After that, you can adjust these settings for any website from the Noir menu in Safari. And of course, all changes you make will automatically be synced with all your devices using iCloud. For more information about the available options, see “About advanced appearance options” in the Noir app. # Report incorrectly detected built-in dark modes You can now report incorrectly detected built-in dark modes directly from the Noir menu in Safari. You can choose to send reports automatically, be asked each time, or never send reports at all. Reports you send will be used to improve Noir for all users. # Improved instructions for new users If you’re reading this, you’ve probably already set up the Noir extension. But for new users, the onboarding has been improved to help people get started with Noir as quickly and as easily as possible. # Website fixes & improvements As always, this update also includes many fixes and improvements based on the website reports that you have sent in. Thank you so much for helping me make Noir as good as possible! Thank you so much for using Noir! As mentioned, please consider leaving a review for Noir in the App Store. It really helps spread the word! When developing Noir, I always try to balance keeping the app simple for new users while making it powerful enough for more advanced users. The new advanced appearance options offer more ways than ever to tweak Noir’s dark theme. If you’re a power user of Noir (or an aspiring one!), I hope you’ll enjoy them, without making the app unnecessarily complex for everyone else. Your feedback is always appreciated! Jeffrey
