Original document by default
No filter on the page. Photos, diagrams, text, emoji and colours render exactly as Google Docs paints them.

your documents honest.

ORIGINAL DOCUMENT
Your work stays itself.
The workspace is dark. The document stays untouched, with exact images and colours.

Accuracy before atmosphere
Dark where safe.
Original where it matters.
Nocturne leaves the document untouched by default. Dim lowers brightness without inversion; Black transforms the shared Docs canvas for a fully dark page, so embedded images may look different.
Three page choices
Keep it Original, lower the brightness with Dim, or choose Black for light text on a near-black page.
Dark from the first frame
A declarative boot surface arrives before ordinary Docs rendering, then reconciles saved settings.
Docs and Drive
Complete Docs editing surfaces plus a separate Pro renderer for Drive navigation, search, lists, grids, menus and dialogs.
Clean printouts
Nocturne removes its filters and controls in print media. PDF export remains Google Docs’ job.
Private by construction
No document text, title, URL or identifier goes to Nocturne. There is no analytics SDK or ad tracker.
Free essentials, paid comfort
The dark mode stays free.
Pro earns its place.
Nocturne will never paywall correctness, privacy, the basic Docs theme, print safety or compatibility repairs.

Your documents are none of our business.
Nocturne changes browser presentation. It does not transmit your document text, title, URL or identifier.
