Description from extension meta

Highlight text on websites with a simple right-click or keyboard shortcut. Saves highlights on your device.

Image from store Highlighter
Description from store Easiest way to highlight text on any webpage! Simply select text, then right click it to select the "Highlight" option. Alternatively, use the default keyboard shortcut 'Alt+H' (^H on Mac). All highlighted texts are saved so that your highlights are not lost when exiting a page! Simply re-opening that page will bring back all the highlights. NOTE: This does not work on very dynamic webpages like Facebook and most email clients. Support for these might be added in the future. ➪ View and copy all highlights on a page ➪ Copy all your highlights to your clipboard easily. ➪ Select existing highlights with a simple click to either delete them or to copy their content. ➪ Customize your highlight colors (and text color). ➪ Change the keyboard shortcut through Chrome settings at 'chrome://extensions/shortcuts'.

  • (2023-08-27) Megha Goyal: will the highlighted portion be visible to other indiviudals ? if i copy paste the web link ???
  • (2023-08-22) Adérito: Perfectly simple. No need to create account or login. Just local data!
  • (2023-08-22) Jure Kovač: Simple & straightforward. Everything works perfectly until you switch computers - then all your highlights are stuck on your old computer with no way to transfer them. Please add functionality to trensfer data to a new computer.
  • (2023-07-26) Aaron Austrie: Good app. At first it wasn't working for me but I figured it out after. It works ok for me. I just wish it had more highlight color options.
  • (2023-07-15) Đinh Dũng Hồ: This Highlighter app is the best I can find on Google Chrome ! Why is it so ? It is easy to use. You can change highlight color and text color too, It means you can highlight it when you use dark theme, it is really perfect
  • (2023-07-01) john poulianakis: How to transfer highlights to new computer? There is no indication of how to do this. This means when you cahgne computers eventually, all your highlights will be lost. Is tehre a way of doing it? Thank you
  • (2023-06-28) Cv: I was going to write my own web highlighter before I met this one. Excellent functionality that meets all my needs! I have no intention of writing my own...
  • (2023-06-24) Vijay Khatri: IT JUST WORKS!! And A BIG THANK YOU.
  • (2023-06-21) Kameron Stephenson: Works Great! Initially, I had an issue using the highlighter, but it worked once I reloaded the page!
  • (2023-06-20) 지승배: 단축키로 highlight 할 수 있어서 매우 편합니다. 다만, 동일계정임에도 하나의 device에서만 동작하는 점이 아쉽습니다.
  • (2023-06-16) David Ashirov: Fantastic! Minimalistic highlighting using a hotkey, easy to copy and remove. Batch copy is also very helpful.
  • (2023-06-12) Ali Alhakeem: Right Click and highlight does the job But the popup when hovering on it is annoying
  • (2023-06-12) 신하영: 설치 후 페이지 새로고침해야 사용 가능해짐 토글에서 모아볼 수 있는 건 편한데 그 페이지 떠나면 확인 불가. 그럼 굳이 왜 쓰냐 ㅋㅋ 그리고 한글 작성 오류남 자꾸 ㅈㅏㄱ 이러고 있음 (카톡에서 쓰고 복붙함 어쩔 수 없이) 단축키 컨h 하거나 우클릭-스크롤 내려서 확장 프로그램 선택 밖에 없어서 사용성 떨어짐 물론 단축키도 없는 앱도 있긴 한데 ㅋㅋ ㄹㅇ 역대급 불편 ㅁㅏㄱ ㅇㅣㄹㅓㅎㄱㅔ ㅊㅕㅈㅣㅁ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅁㅣㅊㅕㅆㄴㅏㅂㅗㅏ
  • (2023-06-05) Bianca .CVG: wont work even when you change the shortcut
  • (2023-06-02) Madi W: No matter what I try, it refuses to work whatsoever.
  • (2023-05-29) Saidus: Better than the other highlighters extension.
  • (2023-05-27) Ryan Hart: Does not work properly on dark theme sites (Nexusmods for example) highlighting white text turns the background yellow but keeps the text white instead of turning it black. Use Super Simple Highlighter instead.
  • (2023-05-22) M L: Doesn't work at all. On anything. It can't even highlight this comment as I'm writing it.
  • (2023-05-02) Mario: Is it possible to see a list of sites that we have highlighted? I understand that it saves the highlights locally. But what if we close the site and can't remember the link to it. But the extension still has the highlights. Can we see a list of sites that we have highlighted? This would round off the extension to perfection.
  • (2023-04-28) Isaac Muniz: I tried some and this is for me the best highliting extension. Thank you, devs!
  • (2023-04-24) AnhTrinh: cool
  • (2023-04-11) Raphael Menezes: Does not work.
  • (2023-04-08) Mikhail Kalashnikov: Perfeito, essa extensão está funcionando em sites que outras extensões não funcionavam tipo openAI. Simples, sem poluição visual, fácil de deletar e com opções interessantes.
  • (2023-03-18) Gilbert Ferreira Annui: Eu adoraria poder ter acesso a todos os destaques que eu fiz em diferentes sites! Seria ótimo se houvesse um botão, dentro das opções da extensão, que te levasse a um site com a coleção dos excertos (pode ser só as primeiras cinco linhas de cada um). Acho que é uma atualização necessária!!!
  • (2023-03-12) Chandan Kumar: I love this tool very much for its simplicity-cum-power. I have been facing one persistent problem though. If a website has poor design the selection jumps uncontrollably sometimes. In such cases, a large chunk of text is elected and highlighted. It is fine up to here. The problem is the pop-up in this tool to change delete the highlights does not appear on very large chunks of highlighted text. The tool menu from the extension bar shows me all the highlights. The large chunk highlighted appears too. In the menu, I wished there was an option to select the chunk individually and delete it. But, currently, the menu has only "Delete All" option. I request the developer, to either make the popup tool more consistent or add an option in tool menu from the extension bar to select and delete the items individually.
  • (2023-02-24) Ujesh Krishnan: While copying all highlighted text at once and pasting somewhere, there is no space between each highlighted paragraphs. It would be nice if developer could add a line gap between each highlighted text while pasting everything at once. Delete all button is also not working.
  • (2023-02-13) KRZ: Simply the best
  • (2023-02-11) Attie: nothing to complain of, exactly what I need, just refresh the page once and you're good to go. i love how it gives no nonsense and gives me exactly what i need
  • (2023-02-02) Camilla Lekman Hansen: I really like this highlighter and use it for webinars I hold. Love that it is possible to use different colours and that it remembers ehat I have highlighted during the webinars. I use shortcut to open the highlighter, works perfectly, but I seem not to be able to get shortcut to change colours to work. I cant either get the delete all to work, but I have tried som many highlighters and this one is absolutely the best one I have found.
  • (2023-02-01) Daniel Osypenko: Don't work for huge texts as logs from Jenkins but in the same time works good with small-middle pages
  • (2023-01-26) H.S. Chandi: best highlighter
  • (2023-01-22) Freya Zadari: amazing
  • (2023-01-14) a b (ab): Amazing how hard it was to find a tool like this that just works. The top highlighters all have issues, don't work, or are overly intrusive. This is simple and does what i need without asking me for my e-mail!
  • (2023-01-05) BMLM: love the tool very much, its simple and light, but it has a bug where you can't erase notes, but i still give you 5 star, I trust author can fix it.
  • (2023-01-02) 11A2-16- Trương Tuấn Kiệt: Great and convenient to use! Help a lot with Reading exercises.
  • (2023-01-02) lumi tarigal: i don't get everyone in the reviews saying it doesn't work, it works great! i love how you can customize the colors, and you don't need to create an account like for other highlighters.
  • (2022-12-21) Aidan Lea: No nonsense and works perfectly. Can't believe I used to work without it
  • (2022-11-23) Dan Alvarez: Es justo lo que buscaba. Probé otra extensión de resaltador y no me gustó para nada; no podías borrar lo que habías resaltado y absolutamente todo el texto que seleccionabas se resaltaba. Estoy agradecido con la persona o personas que haya/n desarrollado esta extensión.
  • (2022-11-20) Morteza Charkhzarrin: I love your extension but please add cloud-based highlighting
  • (2022-11-20) davod lay: eh its fine i just wished it worked for PDF files
  • (2022-11-16) Francesco Pio Perrotta: The simplest and more complete hightligher extension.
  • (2022-11-14) SHAN CAI CASTAÑAS: Refresh your site before using the highlighter to make it work. The extension works perfectly!
  • (2022-11-04) Juan José: En mi Chrome 107 en Windows 10 no funciona.
  • (2022-03-22) James H: Will 'lose' some of the highlights if you refresh/ revisit a page. Very annoying. Throws a fit on sciencedirect.com as it struggles to properly highlight.
  • (2022-03-21) Íris Niara: Não entendi como funciona!
  • (2022-03-14) OrderlyHippo: You added custom colors! Faaaaantastic! This brings my review to 5 stars! Everything I want is here. The user experience could be easier though. 1. More slots for custom colors would be nice, when setting shortcuts, the custom colors mess it up for some reason making all my custom colors dissapear??? and finally, 3. a transparency setting would be nice as well for the custom colors since manually tuning and picking the best color can be tedious (this is especially useful for dark mode when the colors get changed).
