Ambient glow behind feed photos and videos on TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Threads and X, with smooth color blending between posts. Ambient Light for Social Feeds adds a soft, colorful glow behind the photos and videos in your feed on the desktop web versions of TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Threads and X. Each photo or video tints the page around it with its own colors. When two posts in a row both have media, the color flows smoothly from the bottom of one to the top of the next. If the next post is text only, the color simply fades out. FEATURES • Colors taken from each photo and video, drawn behind the page: posts, menus and dialogs stay crisp and untinted • So the colors can show through, it makes the site's page and post backgrounds see-through (adjust with "Card see-through") • Smooth color blending between consecutive posts • On videos, the colors follow the picture as it plays, with frame blending and an FPS cap • Optional full-width mode that reaches the edges of the screen • Works on dark and light themes, or only on dark themes if you prefer • Text readability options and side menu styles (solid, frosted, see-through); headers pinned at the top of the feed turn to the same frosted glass • Fine-tuning: strength, spread, blur, saturation, brightness, card see-through, quality (Battery saver / Balanced / Sharp) • Turn it on or off per site and per page type (feeds, reels, full-screen photo viewers) • Turns itself off on direct-message pages • English and Vietnamese interface HOW TO USE 1.
