  • (2023-11-13) Huang Guan: it's the best add-on in my chrome extention list, thanks for developer create this amazing tool. but, can you disalbe "setBadgeBackgroundColor" and "setBadgeText" in the future release? because it's kind of annoying icon suddenly appear in right cornor and attract my attention mutiple times.
  • (2023-09-25) Richard Lievesley: Good: Does what it says and highlights multiple words well Bad: Something is wrong with it as whenever it's enabled, scrubbing on Youtube becomes unresponsive or locks the tab up
  • (2023-08-30) Mario Qiu: works fine except while I am typing in the rich text editor and the editor content contains the keywords. it breaks my input method (Chinese)
  • (2023-08-25) welson allen: 功能比另外一款强大,却有个致命的缺陷,那就是这个插件的添加了一个 mh的标签高亮,但是这个而不是 span 这个html标注标签,导致拷贝到 OneNote ,word等无法保持高亮后的颜色,而另外一款却没有这个致命问题,只是相对简单,就是空格作为分隔符,但是也非常够用。所以希望作者能更新高亮标签拷贝后依然保持html代码的优点,这样我高亮后拷贝到其他地方依然会显示我要的效果。 非常感谢

  • (2023-02-20) Anatoly Volikov: "Add keyword" function does not work after the last update released on February 17, 2023. (Extension version 2.11.1)
  • (2023-02-09) Elizaveta Kosak: It's great when it works. But then the window gets smaller and it starts working:((( help me
  • (2023-01-29) o0oOoO00O o0OoO0: 使用的效果还是比较满意的。我通过这个工具再某个网站筛选了几十个关键词,符合我的预期。 我需要经常对多个特定网站使用这个插件,所以我设置了“save words”,“toggle extension”,并且没有更改chrome的默认设置“允许访问所有的网站”,导致的结果就是:打开YouTube,bilibili等视频网站的时候,会严重卡顿,视频无法流畅的播放。 我对电脑不是很精通,我唯一能确定的是关闭这个插件就可以让这些视频网站恢复正常,我不知道这算是设计上的一点缺陷,还是我使用方式有问题。
  • (2022-12-15) Arpad Orfi: This is one of the bests highlighter extension - simple to use yet powerful. There are two other that are worth checking - they are more powerful: Highlight This: finds and marks words https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/highlight-this-finds-and/fgmbnmjmbjenlhbefngfibmjkpbcljaj and Auto Highlight https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/auto-highlight/ndndibnggapaodjdfoeehgmmpppedgfb
  • (2022-12-12) Ziah Goodrow: (Browser: Google Chrome on Windows 10) It does the job and highlights things, nice and brightly! Unfortunately, enabling "Auto-Rehighligh" (sp) causes web pages to load very slowly, incompletely, and/or not at all. This is especially noticeable on sites like Zendesk, YouTube, and YouTube Music. Having to manually refresh on every page is sadly a dealbreaker, as my team was hoping to use this to help out with our ticketing systems. The extension would also greatly benefit from being able to choose your own colors, and it would also be fantastic if colors were to show up on the scroll bar like when searching with ctrl+f :) If the first issue were resolved, this would be an easy 4 or 5 star. Definitely a 5 with all three!
  • (2022-12-05) Arpad Orfi: Best in its class. Better than many similar highlighters, yet, very simple to use. Thank you!
  • (2022-11-27) Linda Fitriani: Hi, this used to be worked well, but now it have size issue, the pop-up size can't be changed even with the size changed in options
  • (2022-11-01) 周星(zhou xing): interference report I have few line word to high when i use Multi-Highlight for a while then i go to youtube it will interfer you to pause resume the video it only happen at Chrome but Edge
  • (2022-09-24) Azen Zhang: 有bug,有的不能高亮显示
  • (2022-09-19) Subash Saravanan: It is a excellent extension with user friendly interface, but it keeps on highlighting the words even the extension is "OFF". Please fix this !!!
  • (2022-09-17) Kejia-Timo Ji: if someone meet the size issue?? even if adjust it in the Option?
  • (2022-09-14) Timon JK: The only problem is that you can't jump in the query results.
  • (2022-09-12) Hi i am using Mac and it doesn't work there. Can you tell me which browser to use it on for it to work
  • (2022-07-20) EE Y: Can't you make it persist when you hit refresh (F5)?
  • (2022-06-23) Monique Revil: it was working so well but sometimes when i open it up, the words i saved in the text box would refresh and there was no undo button. aside from that, it is working perfectly but it is very inconvenient when it acts up.
  • (2022-05-27) Victoria Abram: I used it a lot and it stopped working. I looooove the tool. I read there is a new version, how can I find it on the google chrome extensions store? I looked and I don't know which one is it. Thanks!
  • (2022-05-16) Elle Tao: nice
  • (2022-04-30) Julio Cesar (Pessoal): Unfortunately it's not working for me anymore (Using Edge).
  • (2022-04-01) Iohanna O: Excellent! It's working perfectly! It's simple and everything I needed. Thank you!
  • (2022-02-17) mmeichan: When I open PDF files on Chrome from my computer, this search doesn't work. That is the main purpose that I would've wanted to use this add-on for.
  • (2022-01-08) Akihiko Kawaguchi: I liked this extension and it had worked as expected until last month, but it does not work as far as I test it on Chrome version 97.0.4692.71 on macOS.
  • (2021-11-24) Roman Ivanov: Previous version can highlight text which is inside of an iframe, this one doesn't.
  • (2021-11-15) Bhaskar: Really great. Synonyms can be given same color and new color on next line. I really like that feature. Its hard to find. Also, highlighted words have great resolution. Great work. Best highlighter in my opinion.
  • (2021-10-31) Evgeny: Великолепное расширение. Благодарю. Очень поможет мне в работе.
  • (2021-09-21) René Ch: The last version worked perfectly, the new version does not work, how could I install the last version in my new computers?
  • (2021-09-21) Paul Jefferies: Works well for me, let's me highlight multiple words at once. It's sticky (when "fixed wordlist" checked) so remains working across websites until you remove the highlights. Would be nice perhaps to have the option to choose the colours used. "Delimiter" doesn't work for me, would be nice to have phrase searching and wildcards (or even regex). Good job, thanks.
  • (2021-08-25) J M: last was better, this one do not save the settings.. PLEASE FIX IT WAS AMAZING

  • (2021-04-27) Rachell Anne Manuel: doesn't work well.
  • (2021-04-20) Koustubh Siddiqui: It does not work at all.
  • (2020-09-02) Pete Becky: 很赞,单个字符也能快速找到,但是如果能够升级功能,做个开关,让用户可以选择是否需要插件一直在后台运行,而不是每用一次或者每打开一个网页就要点击一次才可以就更好了
  • (2020-08-23) Jin Liang: I really like this extension. I really wish that there's a way to turn it "on" and "off" instead of having to click on the extension button EVERYTIME I open a new webpage. (Maybe there is a way to do that already?)
  • (2020-07-03) 陳嘉祥: 你少打使用說明 安裝完瀏覽器重開一個網頁按一次Multi Highlight
  • (2020-01-03) Karanvir Singh: on xml api calls it does not work

  • (2023-07-06, v:2.11.1) Charles Mann: Since adding this extension, something weird happens.
    For some reason one word that I added is not only being highlighted, every time I use it, the cursor moves to the front of the word. It is the strangest thing, I am not a novice in computers or software, and it definitely started happening after I added the extension?

  • (2022-12-28, v:2.10.0) kirubakaran j: Auto-Rehighligh problem with whatsapp web
    Problem: when I tried to enter words in text box of watsapp web, the words are getting deleted/erased. I figured out that when Auto-Rehighligh is checked, this problem occurs. If the Auto-Rehighligh is unchecked, then watsapp web text box is working normal. for eg. the words entered in multihightlight are ice gelato. when i try to type ice in chat box of watsapp web, its deleting automatically. If i try to type office, only "off" showing "ice" is deleting automatically. Dunno wats the issue? Can anyone help me with this? Note: I tried by clearing cache, cookies also. still the problem exists.

  • (2022-12-05, v:2.10.0) Arpad Orfi: High CPU usage with Auto-Rehighlight enabled and YouTube open
    If Auto-Rehighlight is enabled and you stream anything on youtube.com (or music.youtube.com) the extension gets into a crawl, the CPU usage goes way up, nearing 100%. If it is not possible to distinguish whether the "content change" is textual or some kind of streaming content, then it would be good to have an input field in the settings window, a blacklist to list sites where the extension would not work. That list by default should include youtube.com (and maybe other streaming sites as well).
  • (2022-10-20, v:2.10.0) K H: Auto highlight issue
    The extension version is 2.10.0. When refreshing a page or moving to another page does not reflect the highlight. Have to turn it off and on to reflect every time.
  • (2022-10-11, v:2.10.0) Arpad Orfi: Emptying text entry field breaks down the extension completely.
    When deleting everything from the extension's text entry field (you don't want to highlight anything, so clear all words from the text field) and click on the page to hide the pop-up window, then the extension's pop-up breaks down when opening it again; its width becomes extremely narrow. And also the extension stops working entirely, even reloading the page does not help - you have to uninstall the extension for it to work again.

    Mr. Chen: Hi-thanx- I'm not an IT guy. I just wanted to be able to highlight multiple word/s from different parts of articles to use with Chrome's new dropdown 'save highlight to link feature.' Does this do that? Any suggestions? How to use? Again- thanx for your time/effort Ion
  • (2022-08-05, v:2.9.0) Stu Mountjoy: Looks funny in Windows 11
    I'm sure it does work, I have used it on a win 10 machine with no problems. But when I tried it in win 11, too narrow. Just feedback, not a poor review.
  • (2022-04-18, v:2.8.0) Lainie Paez: not highlight words anymore

  • (2022-01-23, v:2.8.0) Arpad Orfi: Feature requests – ideas to improve
    I have some ideas to further improve this already brilliant extension: (in order of importance): ***total number of hits (in the pop-up, but optionally also as an overlay over the extension icon) ***ignore diacritics option (i.e. motor=motör – öüóőúéáűí=ouooueaui) ***navigation between hits (i.e. pressing Enter or any other key to jump to the next/previous hit) ***navigating between particular search terms (i.e. jump to the next/previous occurrence of the selected search term, e.g. by any subsequent click on the word would take you to its next occurrence; shift+click to get to the previous occurrence of the clicked word) ***open extension pop-up not relative to its icon placement on the toolbar, but next to the right edge of the browser window (not covering the scroll bar).

    Great extension, but not working for me since January 5 update. It wont keep the keywords entered. As soon as I click out of the search box the search terms disappear and nothing is highlighted. Previous version working fine.
  • (2021-09-22, v:2.5) René Ch: Fix
    Hello Mr. Chen. It simply won't highlight anything at all. And every time I open the finder again all the text disappears. I've tried already selecting and diselecting all the options available and nothing works. Thanks for your time. I still use the old version in my old computer and it works perfectly.
  • (2021-09-21, v:2.5) René Ch: Fix
    The last version worked perfectly, the new version does not work, how could I install the last version in my new computers?
  • (2021-09-03, v:2.5) Luis Rosa: Doesn't work in Indeed
    Hi there, this is pretty awesome. However, I can't use it to highlight within resumes in Indeed or other similar programs; it will only highlight everything else on the page, just not within the resume. Will this extension not work for that?
  • (2021-09-02, v:2.5) Chris Hayes: Highlight when you double-click a word
    As a developer, the ability to double-click (select) a word and see all occurrences highlighted would be super useful. It would be nice if this extension had that feature.

    Hi your tool will be very helpful for my team, however the security team at my company wants to be sure it is secure and there will be support in case of a breach. Is there a paid version with basic support where you can give info on how this tool is secure and answer security questions?
  • (2020-09-02, v:2.3) Pete Becky: 插件每打开一个网页就需要重新点击一次按钮才可以工作
    建议可以做个开关,让人们可以根据需要自己选择是否保持始终工作的状态,而不是每次都点击一下图标,这样跟ctrl+f 又有多大区别?

  • (2019-07-08, v:2.1.0) Option to list words in different categories.
    Can you create an option in the extension to create categories to accommodate list of words in it. This is to show the category name when we hover on the highlighted word.
