Noir - Dark Mode for Safari

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!

- 2026.1.1: More website fixes and improvements

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!
