This is an extension that can highlight text on a web page, in a variety of styles. The highlighted text can be summarised, either as snippets or as full text.
In addition, the extension remembers the location & content of each highlight, and **attempts**, not always successfully, to highlight the same passages of text the next time the page is loaded.
The current page’s highlights are listed by clicking on the ‘Pen’ icon in the toolbar, along with other management functions, such as copying the highlight’s text to the clipboard, or speaking the selected text. Further functions are available in the options page.
P.S. You can assign a keyboard shortcut to the creation of a highlight, use Chrome’s built-in shortcut facilities, located in the menu of the main Extensions page.
P.P.S. This extension does not sync across devices, or make backups. Highlights, alongside the address of the page they were made on, live & die only on the computer they’re made. When the extension is uninstalled, your highlights are also deleted. In addition, the data is not encrypted, so you shouldn’t highlight sensitive information, such as passwords.
P.P.P.S. There are many reasons why highlights may not be restored when the page is reloaded, all of which are related to how the web site is operated, and are beyond my control. Please don’t contact me about this, there is literally nothing I can do about it.
This is a neat little tool for when doing research, because some articles can be rather long, and the ability to quickly navigate back to an earlier idea is most definitely crucial. My only complaint is there isn’t a more spontaneous method to highlight the text; select, right mouse click, and select color is just 2 steps too many that deters this from being the complete extension. If possible, I would like to have the ability to hold down CTRL key and select with mouse.
عنجد حبيت✨😔
I’ve always loved this extension until now! There’s something majorly wrong with this app!
I highlighted things in an online text. Now, when I re-opened Chrome browser, this extension’s icon in the menu-bar has a small red dot on it and the highlights no longer appear on the page I highlighted. I see the list of highlighted parts in the extension (when I click on the icon, a drop-down list appears with those highlighted parts). However there’s no way of making them appear inside the text, nor remove the red dot.
funcona perfectamente :3
Didn’t even work one time! another useless highlighter!
Good at what it’s supposed to do
First I saw the images that they have put there and I thought it will work well. And then I add into my Chrome page. So, I tried many times but it didn’t work out. I tried so many times. Do not try this
안돼요
Amei a extensão. Simplesmente perfeita. A melhor da categoria, finalmente achei a extensão q eu pretendia S2
Malísima no sirvió en ninguna página
De suma importância para ajudar nos estudos, principalmente pela variedade de cores disponibilizadas. Obrigado aos desenvolvedores.
Awesome, but please add an option to keep the original background (transparent background).
não funciona
Weave每次要梯太烦了…这个真的简洁
Actually it works! It’s good!
1. select the text you want to highlight.
2. Use two fingers and tap gently on your mouse
3. you should see this highlight extension there.
4. If you hover over it, you should see like a drop down asking what color.
5. choose your color and it will automatically highlight it for you.
please add shortcuts!
Extension is now spam – reroutes your searches through the blacksearch.org search engine.
Whenever you search something, the search will go through “blacksearch.org” before showing you the search results. It started happening suddenly one day with my searches, I had no idea why it started all of a sudden. When the behavior didn’t replicate in the incognito window, I disabled all extensions and ensured my search was working fine. One by one, I enabled all extensions to find out which extension was causing this behavior – turns out it was this one.
Хорошее расширение. Помогает выделить важную информацию для скриншотов.
haber para ser gratis es una extensión muy buena te permite usar y guardar el tono de subrayador que mas te guste y en cima puedes crear atajos para usar lo mas rápido y es muy sencilla de usar, puede que en pdf no se pueda usar (o por lo menos a mi no me deja) pero muy útil en general
Thank you for gream extension.
Is possible to add option to comment highlights? It woud be wery usefull for active reading complex articles and make your extension better than any other solution
I woud be glad buy extansion with such functionlity.
Excelente. Puedo marcar texto en varios colores y luego, en las opciones de la extensión puedo ver todas las páginas marcadas y sus correspondientes textos en cada color. Por ejemplo, puedo estudiar un texto y subrayar con amarillo, utilizando el rojo para las partes que no entiendo. Más adelante, puedo revisar todos los textos en rojo para profundizar los temas. Genial!
Not working. When I click “turn on” It closes out and does not work
Simply not working
Adding local storage highlighting is great, but I hope I can add notes on pages at the same time.
Work just fine… No need for registration as most others requires, for some reason.
