Grayscale for Safari

What it does

Grayscale is a Safari extension that turns the web black & white so you can browse with less visual stimulation. It works on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Unlike full blockers, it keeps the web usable while making distracting feeds, thumbnails, and colorful interfaces feel calmer. You can enable grayscale globally, then whitelist the sites where color still matters. Built for people who want a lighter, more intentional browsing setup without changing their entire workflow.

Turn Safari black and white to reduce visual noise and browse with fewer distractions.

Turn distracting websites black and white so browsing feels calmer and less addictive. Red badges, bright thumbnails, autoplay and infinite feeds all compete for attention. Grayscale removes one of the strongest signals: color. Enable, disable, or whitelist the current site from the Safari extension. No tracking, no analytics, no account. Your settings stay on your device. Set it once, enable the Safari extension, and let Grayscale reduce visual noise byfrom grayscale.lessnoise.app

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
