Easy Report: you report it, we work on it. Report issues in Safari. We review reports daily, track bugs, and prioritize fixes for future updates. NEW IN 26 — EASY REPORT Unreadable text, wrong colors, or a page that looks too dark? Open Aurora in Safari and tap “Report a problem.” Choose what looks wrong, add an optional note, and review or remove the screenshot before sending. No account needed. Help us see which pages need attention. YOU REPORT IT. WE WORK ON IT. We review reports daily, track reported issues, and investigate what went wrong. Your reports help us prioritize bug fixes for future Aurora updates. Tired of blinding screens at night? Wish you could browse in total comfort, with a style that's uniquely yours? Aurora is the only Safari dark mode built for iOS — with Focus Filter, Control Center, Live Activity, and Auto Schedule features no other dark mode app has. Unlike the dark mode in iOS Settings or Focus modes — which only darkens the Safari interface — Aurora darkens the website content itself, even on sites that have no dark mode of their own. MADE FOR iOS — FEATURES NO OTHER DARK MODE APP HAS • Read in Your Own Font — the new Font tab brings 14 typefaces, from Literata and Inter to OpenDyslexic and Atkinson Hyperlegible, plus four text sizes. Per-site control, and it works with dark mode on or off. • Focus Filter — Aurora automatically toggles dark mode when you enter Sleep, Reading, Work, or any iOS Focus mode. Built right into iOS. • Control Center Widget — Toggle dark mode from anywhere on iOS 18+, even outside Safari, with one tap. • Live Activity — See dark mode status on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. • Auto Schedule — Automatic on/off at custom times. Different schedules per day of the week. Let Aurora adapt to your routine. • Siri & Shortcuts — "Hey Siri, turn on dark mode." Automate Aurora with the Shortcuts app. One tap, total control. • iOS Appearance Sync — "Sunset to sunrise." Aurora automatically toggles on and off based on your iOS system theme. Perfect harmony. BUILT FOR iOS 18+ Aurora is updated for the latest iOS and works reliably where other dark mode extensions fail. Site-specific optimizations for YouTube, Google, Twitter, Reddit, Amazon, Wikipedia, Medium, and many more for the best possible experience. BEYOND DARK MODE — A COMPLETE EYE COMFORT TOOLKIT • Unleash Your Creativity — Don't settle for black and white. Our powerful Theme Creator lets you design and save unlimited unique themes. Your web, your colors. • Protect Your Eyes & Sleep Better — Our Blue Light Filter reduces harmful blue light from screens, helping to reduce eye strain and improve your sleep quality. • Reduce Annoying Glare — Tame overly bright images, ads, and banners with the Image Filter. Enjoy a perfectly balanced and comfortable view in any lighting condition. • Fine-Tune Your Experience — Adjust brightness (10–190%) and contrast (10–290%) to match your perfect reading comfort level. • You Are In Control — Use the powerful Whitelist/Blacklist feature to decide exactly which websites Aurora should run on. WHY AURORA PRO? • Unlock every feature — Theme Creator, Focus Filter, Auto Schedule, unlimited themes and fonts, and more. • Pay once, keep it forever — the Lifetime unlock never renews. No subscription needed. • 3-day free trial — no credit card, no auto-charge. • One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac. • Free lifetime updates and priority support.

The app I didn’t know I needed until I got it.

First, this Dev is amazing. I’m familiar with this developer and his works. He has always made top notch quality work & is ethical. As far as the app, whether you’re just browsing or reading articles whatever it may be you are doing in safari, this absolutely eases eye strain in Safari but more importantly aside from looking great, it has practical use . It also works on iPhone & Mac under one premium license which is awesome and rare. The amount of integration available in this app is impressive, to name a small few, iCloud sync, extensions, filters, control center widgets, there is a long list of how much this app actually offers. There was a lot of love put into this and it shows via the UI/UX. There isn’t enough good I can say about this app. I will also be honest this app is out of my norm but I am absolutely happy I picked it up. It’s very rare I give 5 star reviews, but this was earned via a great app that was made very well. You don’t have to understand development to understand the care that went into this app. It’s has so many useful features, and everything listed in the description holds 100% true as far as what it offers BUT, it offers so much more. I will end this as I believe many people will be very pleasantly surprised with this app. The free trails gives you a great idea, of the capabilities of the app. I would say if you can support this developer and his work, the price is fair for what you get especially with such a useful app as this one. Premium was the way to go, for my usage. Greatly made & functional, gorgeous app!

I’m really glad you’re enjoying the features and finding the app useful. Your support means a lot and motivates me to keep making Aurora even better. Thank you again!

Aurora Dark Mode for Safari is easily one of the best dark-mode apps I’ve used!

It’s great for making websites much more comfortable to look at, especially at night, and I really notice the difference in how easy it is on my eyes. The features are excellent and, in my experience, offer more flexibility and functionality than Darker – Dark Mode for Safari and Noir – Dark Mode for Safari.Another big plus is the price. It’s very reasonably priced for what you get, and I honestly think it’s well worth the money. The combination of great features, eye-friendly browsing, and a simple overall experience makes Aurora a fantastic choice for Safari users.If you’re looking for a dark-mode extension for Safari, I highly recommend giving Aurora a try. Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Aurora is a great Safari dark mode app with a useful blacklist feature, letting you keep certain websites in their default light appearance. It works well overall and is easy to use. However, dark mode compatibility could be improved on search websites, where pages can sometimes look inconsistent. I tried other dark safari extension but the dark mode is bad but this is one is good as it also offers beyond dark mode themes so if you need a Safari extension that offers dark mode and more this is your app.

Previously, I was using a similar bit of software, and had come across Aurora when exploring what else is out there. I’m really glad I did, and if you are reading this, you already found yourself wanting to see what else is out there as well. If you need a little assurance, you don’t know me, and I most certainly don’t know you - but we both found our way to Aurora. So, I’m gonna try to save you some time; don’t delay. I’m fairly certain you’ll love Aurora as much as I do!

FIXED FROM YOUR REPORTS • Number Web articles are readable again: text no longer sits on a light paper background, and the menu’s close button and search box are visible (reported on number.bunshun.jp). Something still looks wrong on a site? Tap “Report a problem” in Aurora’s Safari popup. We review reports daily.
