Readwise Highlighter (Community)
Description from store

Readwise Highlighter (Community) is a simple highlight creator extension for your Readwise account. Now you are not restricted by highlight sources Readwise supports syncing from, and can create highlights from any online webpage text you want.

Simply do the following to create a new highlight and send it automatically to your Readwise account:

1. Install extension.
2. Click on extension in the browser bar, enter your Readwise access token (use the link on the extension to get your token), and click save.
3. Highlight any text on any webpage and right click the highlighted area.
4. Select one of the menu options to automatically send the highlighted text to your Readwise account as a highlight.

**Updates**

* Added "Create Highlight" option to edit the attributes of a highlight before sending it to Readwise. The original highlight creation is now labelled "Create Quick Highlight".

Please send feedback and suggestions!

A lot of the reviews below are from people who clearly didn't read the instructions. If you click on the extension in the top right, yes it will just ask for your token. However, the instructions in the first image say it works by you highlighting the text you need, right clicking, and then creating a highlight.

Broken, do not use! The only thing it does is ask for the access token.

This extension was so useful, and has been great for a few years, but it's not work anymore. Seems as if it has been abandoned, as there are no answers from the devs either… :(

Token will not save so what's the point of this being downloadable?

Goes far beyond the basic extension in allowing me to easily create tags and notes and also to add an author to blog post highlights. Awesome. However, it often complains that the API key isn't saved but when I open the options, there it is. Usually just clicking Save again fixes it but not always. I would prefer not to have to do this ever, obviously.

Excellent app worthy of a 5-start review!! (the only review I've ever done). There's no better way to get your web highlights from almost anywhere into one place (Obsidian, Evernote, etc). Readwise takes care of the middleware integrations, but also provides an excellent tool on its own! This is fantastic.

Fantastic software the Readwise offers. I'd recommend it to everyone who struggles with retention of information that one consumes and forgets in the weeks to come. Seems like a waste of time in the end. This is the solution.
