Frequently asked questions

Does Lowen work on most websites?

Yes. Lowen is designed for broad coverage — from simple blogs and news sites to complex web apps with dynamic content.

What control do I get per site?

You can set each website to auto, always on, or always off. Your choice is remembered so it works the same way next time you visit.

Is my browsing data private?

All dark mode rendering happens locally on your device. The only server communication is for your account, subscription, and synced site settings — no page content is ever sent.

What happens if dark mode doesn't look right on a page?

Lowen shows a clear warning and gives you a one-tap reload option to restore the original page instantly.
