Noir 2024.1.9 – Browse better at night

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.

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!

The app feels right at home on your device. It is a Safari extension, 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 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 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.

WHAT’S NEW
Version 2024.1.9:

Hello! This update of Noir brings a lot of website fixes and improvements. It also includes a new feature that will make some users quite happy:

Port-specific Website Settings
You can now change Noir’s website settings per port of a domain/IP address. If you don’t know what that means, the feature is most likely not for you. But if you do know what it means, it’s quite likely that this will prove useful for you. To use it, simply open the Noir window in Safari, click on the arrow next to the website’s name to select on what level you want to change Noir’s website settings, and select the option with the port.
