Hello! This update of Noir brings a lot of website fixes and improvements. It also includes a new feature that will make some users quite happy:
# Port-specific Website Settings
You can now change Noir's website settings per port of a domain/IP address. If you don't know what that means, the feature is most likely not for you.

To use it, simply open the Noir window in Safari, click on the arrow next to the website's name to select on what level you want to change Noir's website settings, and select the option with the port.
2024.1.8: Fixes Noir sometimes not working on iOS and iPadOS 17.4 in specific circumstances. A lot of people helped me out a ton while I was looking into this issue. Thank you so much to everyone who has helped me, your support was immensely valuable!

2023-05-11
This brand new update of Noir brings a ton of website fixes and performance improvements. Noir is now even faster and more reliable in darkening your favorite websites.
There's also a few new features and other improvements:
- Added an option to the About screen to reset all settings.
- If you tweak Noir's setting for a specific URL, those settings now also apply to similar URLs with different query parameters. If you're confused by what this means, then this feature probably is not for you, but if you do know, chances are you're going to be quite happy with it :)
- Additionally, if you set up URL-specific settings for a URL that does contain query parameters, you can now clean the URL and strip the parameters in the Noir app.
- The Noir menu in Safari now shows an info notice when you're in Private Browsing Mode, reminding you that if you change the Noir settings of a website, the website will show up in the Noir app.
- Fixed an issue in the Noir app where the app would go back to the main screen when attempting to make changes to themes or keyboard shortcuts.
If you run into any issues with Noir after updating, please reach out to me through the 'Contact Support' option in the Noir app and I'll look into it! This update contains many behind-the-scenes changes, so there is always a chance that I missed something. By contacting me, I can look into it and make sure it gets fixed.
Thank you so much to everyone who sent in website reports and feature requests! I really hope you like this update of Noir. If you like the app, please consider leaving a review in the App Store, that helps a lot. Thanks!

2022.3.3

Hi there! This update of Noir adds even more website fixes and improvements.
Previously, in the release notes... Version 2022.3 of Noir added support for an exciting and brand new feature in iOS 16: Focus Filters.
With Focus Filters, you can use a specific Noir theme while a specific Focus mode is active. For example, you can make Noir use its extra dark black theme when your 'Sleep' Focus is active, and the sepia theme for when you are in your 'Reading' Focus.
Additionally, you can also have Noir always on (or off) while you are in certain Focus modes. Want Noir to always be on while you're in your 'Concentration' Focus, even when your device's Dark Mode is not enabled? Focus Filters will make that very easy to set up.
With Focus Filters, it is now even easier to configure Noir exactly the way you like it at any moment. Especially in combination with the custom themes that were added in the last update, the customization possibilities are endless.
To get started with Noir's Focus Filters, update to iOS 16 and go to the Focus page in the Settings app. Select a Focus for which you want to customize Noir's behavior, and scroll to the bottom. Here you'll be able to add a Focus Filter for Noir.

Hi there! This update of Noir adds a set of great new features that make Noir more customizable than ever before!
# Custom Themes
You can now create your very own custom themes and tweak these exactly to your liking. You can change the background and text colors, and also set image dimming and (new in this update!) image gray scaling per theme.
After you have created the perfect theme, it's really easy to share this theme with other users of Noir. Just send them the special link and when they open it on their device, they can import your theme and start using it immediately!
Not the creative type? Don't worry, Noir now also comes with a library of over 20 pre-made themes that you can now add with just a single tap.
# Customizable Keyboard Shortcuts
You can now tweak which specific key combinations are used for Noir's keyboard shortcuts. And that's not all, because there are also many new keyboard shortcuts that you can set up, including ones for switching Noir's theme and disabling Noir until tomorrow.
# Website Fixes & Improvements
As always, this update also includes many fixes and improvements based on your reports. Thank you so much for sending these in and helping me improve Noir!
Update 2022.2.1 includes some fixes to themes in the Theme Library, and improvements to the onboarding process for new users.
Update 2022.2.2 fixes some more issues that were introduced in the previous version, and includes additional website fixes as well.
This update was directly inspired by your input and feedback, so thank you so much! I hope you like the new features!

It includes all the features you’ve come to expect from Noir, such as existing dark mode detection, Shortcuts support and a great native app and interface.

Hi there!
This update brings a lot of optimizations and improvements to the Noir extension, fixing issues that have been reported.
Additionally, there are now two new Shortcut actions available to change the Dim Images setting. You can use this to schedule the Dim Images status independently of the Enabled status. For example, you can keep Noir enabled at all times, but schedule two shortcuts to enable Dim Images only between sunset and sunrise.
As always, thank you so much for using Noir and for sharing your feedback, suggestions, and website reports! If you like Noir, the best way to support the app is by sharing it with others, so please consider telling people about Noir!

Thank you for using Noir, and for sharing your feedback, suggestions, and website reports!
This update adds an exciting new feature to Noir: image dimming. When enabled, Noir will darken all images on the websites you visit. This makes websites even darker. It can be enabled by default, but you can also enable or disable this per website. And in the advanced settings in the Noir app, you can customize the brightness of darkened images.
Next to image dimming, version 2021.3 of Noir also adds a gray theme. This gives you even more options to customize Noir to your liking.
Finally, there are a few smaller improvements. For example, you can now quickly open the Noir app from within the Noir menu in Safari. And of course, as with all updates, this version includes fixes based on the website reports you sent in.
