True Dark Mode: Google Docs, Sheets & Slides од Arkpine Software

A real dark mode (night mode) for Google Docs: the page itself goes dark, not just the menus around it, for less eye strain when you write or read at night. Pictures keep their real colors, never negatives. Colored text and highlights stay colored. Works in Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Forms, and on their home screens.

Most "dark mode" extensions leave the page glaring white, turn your photos into negatives, or wash colored text into mud. True Dark Mode is built for how these editors actually draw today, so the result is a real dark theme.

IMAGES STAY IMAGES
Google Sheets and Docs draw on a canvas, which is why photos often turn into negatives under a dark theme. True Dark Mode keeps them in their real colors: inside Sheets cells, over the grid, on document pages and on slides.

GOOGLE DOCS
• Near-black page and app interface, light body text with proper contrast
• Colored text, links and highlights keep their color instead of turning into mud
• Inline images and photos keep their original colors — no negatives
• Menus, toolbar, right-click menus, dialogs, the comments sidebar and the outline panel are all dark

GOOGLE SHEETS
• Dark grid with light text; cell colors and colored text stay recognizable
• Charts go dark too, with their series colors kept; pictures keep their real colors
• Formula bar, toolbar, menus, sheet tabs and dialogs are all dark

GOOGLE SLIDES
• Light slides go dark with readable text; colored text keeps its color
• Photos and images keep their exact colors, and decks you designed dark stay exactly as they are
• Pastel shapes and table rows become dark versions of their color; strong colors stay as you chose them
• Prefer to see your design as is? One switch keeps the deck in its original colors and darkens only the app around it
• Your slideshow is never touched: you always present the real colors

GOOGLE FORMS
• The editor goes dark: questions, responses, settings, menus and the theme panel
• The page people fill in goes dark too, with radio buttons, checkboxes and dropdowns that stay easy to see
• Your theme stays recognizable: the color bar, the buttons and the accents keep the form's color, on your dark palette
• Header images and pictures keep their exact colors

EVERYWHERE
• The home screens and file lists are dark as well
• Text stays crisp — no blur, no zoom tricks
• One click on the toolbar icon to turn it on or off; your choice is remembered
• Seven palettes, from pure black for OLED screens to a softer dim gray and four tinted darks

Lightweight by design:
• Works only on docs.google.com, on these four editors — it asks for nothing else
• No account, no sign-in, no settings to configure
• No data collection, no analytics, no network requests. Ever.
• No remote code. Everything ships inside the extension.

How to use: install, open any document, spreadsheet, deck or form, and it is dark. A tab that was already open turns dark after one reload; the toolbar popup offers a button for it. Click the moon icon to toggle or pick a palette.
