😁Do your eyes a favor, Install Screen Shader!
😍Screen Shader is the most popular screen tinting application for Chrome!
🧐Screen Shader is in no way endorsed by or affiliated to f.lux Software LLC.
Computer displays produce bright blue light which can strain your eyes late at night and interfere with your sleeping cycle.
Screen Shader is designed to tint your screen a “cozy” orange color to reduce eye-strain, eye fatigue, and restore day/night balance, while also providing a wide variety of settings for everyone’s different tastes!
With over 2 months of very hard work I present Screen Shader 2.0!
⭐A completely redesigned modern menu!
⭐A completely new shading algorithm based off the newest research
⭐Full control over geopositioning, color, and darkness settings
⭐Bug fixes for countless websites
⭐Optimized to never slow chrome down
👌Screen Shader works everywhere you’d expect it to. YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, you name it!
😍Screen Shader is continually tested on windows, mac, and chrome OS, and is constantly being bugfixed and updated with input from its users.
🤟Screen Shader includes these keyboard shortcuts:
ALT SHIFT UP to increase shade
ALT SHIFT DOWN to decrease shade
ALT SHIFT S to toggle the shade
And many more! Edit them in the menu.

Q: I’m young and have good eyes. I don’t need this.
A: Young teens may be twice as sensitive to light at night, and the elderly much less so. These results have important implications for schools, senior care, and device usage at night, too. Simply put: everyone has a use for this and will notice benefits from decreased blue light.
Q: Why not G.lux or Night Light?
A: Other extensions like G.Lux or Night Light just change your screen color. Screen Shader is the only extension available that smartly changes the color of your screen throughout the day using sunset/sunrise times! Research has proven that the circadian rhythm is tied to solar time. Individuals have shown greater preference for screen tinting applications that take that into account.
Q: Does this really remove blue light from my display?
A: Yup! Screens work by individually tweaking the amount of red, green, and blue each pixel of your screen emits. Pixels being the small square of colors that together form the screen. Screen Shader alters the coloration of websites to a redder color. To show these colors, your screen will tweak its pixels to show more red light, less green light, and considerably less blue light; but just enough so you can still see different colors. The more you increase the shade, the more the color of the website will be reddened, the less your screen will show blue light!
Q: Why do i need this? Can’t i simply change the luminosity of my screen?
A: Changing the luminosity does not remove white and blue light from your display. Those colors are still unnatural and will irritate your eyes, even if dimmed. A full day in front of your computer screen can wreak havoc upon your melatonin cycle and internal clock. The unnatural light can also harm your eye retina. Screen Shader is designed to considerably reduce these effects by eliminating enough white and blue light to provide you with the best browsing experience and eye comfort.

It was great! My eyes were saved while I was up late 🙂 BUT I can’t go fullscreen on youtube. (And maybe other sites!) So, I uninstalled it.
Easy and helps eyes to rest!
Useful for people that work late and a lot of time everyday!
This extension is well-made but it makes some websites turn into darkmode. One typical example I can give is https://dictionary.cambridge.org/. I am sure what I say is true.
The best one so far!
I use it everyday and it makes it easier for reading.
Its very smooth and light and has a ton of options to change its style.
10/10 I would totally recommend
Best blue light filter chrome extension !!!
Интересное расширение , только жаль что на системных сайтах не работает
Makes my eyes not hurt at night & makes it easier to sleep. thanks developer
Hi there! i’ve been looking for a Screen Shader software to windows, are there one?
It’s a great extension but it causes some links not to work! please work on this bug!
Oh! I just realized that this extension is the reason why my other extensions are not working properly!!!
I love the available tints!
This Makes my computer run SO hot and SO Loud. (Macbook Pro 2019)
Me ajuda muito !!
tuyệt vời
Very thankful for this extension! No more eye strain or headaches! The extension settings and customisations are also easy to use and manage. Thank you Marc Guiselin.
感謝 很好用!
I have macular degeneration which makes reading/focusing difficult and the white screen is horrendous to adjust to. Found this extension whilst seeking a solution for the white screen glare. This is superb. One can adjust it according to one’s needs and goodness me, what a difference it makes!
I have no trouble focusing to read/watch youtube and so on and so forth. It softens the screen harshness and enhances the text/fonts, making them more visible. I tried other extensions but they were harsh colours or too bright/dark. This is perfect and adaptable to suit everyone’s needs. 100% recommend
THanks! I used to get headaches, not anymore! It’s amazing as a student myself! Keep up the good work!
Love it. Excellent. Thank you.
I loved it..one of the best things I can have from Google. It has raised my efficiency at work. I am able to focus well on the screen for hours now.
This is magical, this has helped me work even without wearing anti glare specs 🙂 <3 <3
Thank You for making it freely available.!
i would give a 5 star when the app support white list function
É boa mas precisa melhorar, porque em algumas paginas “incluindo da extensão do chrome”, o plugin não funciona, então logo vem aquele clarão inesperado nos olhos. Tirando isso, o plugin é ótimo. Eu usava o F.lux para PC, só que ele estava dando “artefatos” na minha placa de video e de muios usuários…Ai estou usando essa extensão, e faz a mesma coisa ! Recomendo mas ainda precisa melhorar ! Obrigado !

It is good but needs to be improved, because on some pages “including the chrome extension”, the plugin does not work, so soon comes that unexpected flash in the eyes. Other than that, the plugin is great. I used F.lux for PC, but it was giving “artifacts” to my video card and to many users … Then I’m using this extension, and it does the same thing! I recommend it but it still needs to improve! Thank you !

I’ve had migraines and headaches and thought to try this out on my laptop and it had been absolutely great. I’ve tried other Blue Light Filter apps and although they were just as effective, what separates this app from the rest if because it also gives a dark mode feature on the browser and Google when researching. Highly recommend.
This is amazing! When I look at something else and back at my computer screen, my eyes don’t even have to adjust to the light. I feel so much more relaxed. I really like that I can change the shader color to whatever I want. I also like the thing where it tells me when to go to bed, because it’s very helpful.
Good
