Noir – Dark Mode for Safari

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 15 and iPadOS 15, 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 Widgets, Focus Filters and Shortcuts 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 a solo 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.

Hi there! Here’s another update bringing a bunch of website fixes. Thanks for reporting these, and my apologies for the otherwise boring release notes!

As always, if you enjoy Noir, please leave a review in the App Store! It would really help me. Thank you so much!

PS – 2023.2.5 fixes compatibility with some specific other Safari extensions.

PPS – Here’s what new features were added in version 2023.2:

# Interactive Widgets to Control Noir
You can quickly enable or disable Noir right from a widget, and switch themes as well. These widgets are only available on iOS 17 and iPadOS 17.

# Improved Shortcuts Support
Noir now offers default Shortcuts in the Shortcuts, making it even easier to start creating your own Shortcuts for Noir. In iOS 17, these default Shortcuts should also appear in Spotlight when you simply search for Noir.

# Alternative App Icon
There’s an all new dark version of Noir’s App Icon that you can use instead of the default purple one. Ideal for when you want to keep your Home Screen just as dark as your websites!

# Website fixes and improvements
As always, this update includes a whole bunch of website fixes and improvements based mostly on your reports. Thank you so much for sending these in!
