Super Simple Highlighter Extension

This extension lets you make highlights on any web page, and subsequently attempts to restore those highlights when you revisit the page.

This process is completely private. The location and contents of your highlights never leave your browser.

A variety of highlight styles are available, with built-in styles including basic colors, redaction, blurs etc. Highlights can be made via the mouse or a keyboard shortcut.

The highlights on a single page can be navigated to from a single popup dialog, and a summary of the page's highlights are also available to view, print, or save.

NOTE:

- The extension does *NOT* sync across your devices.
- There are many factors that may cause highlights not to be successfully restored on subsequent visits.

For more details, see the help page.

(ID: ) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/17/2024 update 10/16/2024 Suddenly stopped working with a recent upgrade in chrome. I like how it works and how it maintains the highlights when you re-open the pages. But found a problem. Opened it today 4/1 and all the previous months marks were gone from one page I do check offs on. Its a calendar page with events that are marked after completion.

蒋钟震 (ID: 000000f7e204403d) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 11/30/2023 Every once in a while, about half a month to a month, my highlighted data suddenly disappears, leaving only some of the latest data, which has happened several times. Fortunately, I often have backup data, but I still lost some data that I forgot to mark during the backup period. Version 2023.07.24 Windows 10 22H2 chrome verison 119.0.6045.124 每隔一段时间，大概是半个月到一个月，我的高亮数据就突然没了，只剩一些最新的数据，发生好几次了，幸亏我经常有备份数据，但还是丢失了一些我忘记备份期间而标记的数据

Sara Xa (ID: 0000002c7d648703) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/09/2023 Finally one that works! I've searched an extention that could do a simple thing: highlight text on a web page... Impossible to find one that works the way intented. Very helpful for homeworks. Bonus: you can personalise the hightlighter style (color, police size, bold, underline...) Thank you! :)

manuel grez (ID: 0000009454302753) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/03/2023 steals your information

DAYANA ALEXANDRA PERALES PALOMINO (ID: 0000002c822ec6c4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/28/2023 Funciona muy bien. Aunque no sobre pdfs, pero para eso mejor hacerlo desde Microsoft edge. Hay comentarios que señalan perfectamente cómo hacer que funcione. Como hacer clic derecho para que empieze el resaltador y también colocar los colores en extensiones , accesos directos según su numeración más ctrl o alt. P.ej. Alt + 1, Alt + 2 etc.
