Noxri Frequently Asked Questions

To force a dark background on every website, you need a Safari Web Extension like Noxri. Simply download Noxri from the App Store, enable it in Safari's 'Aa' menu, and it will automatically apply a dark theme to all pages.

The iOS system dark mode only changes the browser's interface (menus and keyboard). It cannot change a website's content unless the website developer manually coded a dark theme. Noxri bridges this gap by dynamically injecting a dark background into every site.

Yes. Noxri offers a free core version that provides a highly reliable, high-performance dark mode experience for Safari without requiring an upfront purchase.

No. Unlike basic color inverters that make faces look blue, Noxri uses a Smart Invert Engine. It specifically targets backgrounds and text while preserving the natural, original colors of images, videos, and avatars.

Yes, significantly. Modern iPhones use OLED displays where black pixels are actually turned off. By using Noxri to render true black backgrounds instead of bright white, your screen consumes much less power.

Generic extensions ported from desktop PCs can cause scrolling lag on mobile. However, Noxri is built natively for iOS Apple Silicon, ensuring zero lag, instant page loads, and buttery-smooth scrolling.

This is a standard iOS system warning shown for all extensions that modify web pages. To change a white background to black, the extension needs permission to 'see' the page structure. Rest assured, Noxri operates strictly locally.

Absolutely not. Noxri is built with a privacy-first architecture. It processes all color changes directly on your device. We do not collect, store, or transmit your browsing history, passwords, or personal data.

Noxri combines the best of both worlds. Unlike Dark Reader, Noxri is a lightweight native iOS app that doesn't drain your battery or cause lag. Unlike Noir, Noxri offers a free-to-try core version so you aren't forced to pay before testing it.

Yes. If a website already has a great native dark mode, or you prefer reading it in light mode, you can easily toggle Noxri off for that specific domain via the extension menu.

Yes. You can set Noxri to follow your iOS system settings. When your iPhone switches to dark mode at sunset, Noxri will automatically darken your Safari websites.

After downloading the app, open Safari, tap the 'Aa' icon in the address bar, select 'Manage Extensions', toggle Noxri ON, and tap 'Review' to grant it permission to run.

Sometimes iOS Safari needs a moment to register a newly installed extension. Try force-closing the Safari app (swipe up from the bottom of your screen) and reopening it. If it still doesn't appear, a quick device restart will fix it.
