(ID: ) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/18/2018 Followed the instructions, but the icon remains ghosted and it just doesn't highlight anything at all. I'm guessing there's some fix for this, but it's not apparent.

Law Wei (ID: 000000b4d76a7209) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/13/2017 Has the potential to be FANTASTIC extension but still needs work. It's hard to believe that you can't REMOVE highlights, at least in Chrome. Wow. Is anybody home?

張正廷 (ID: 000000149d7e56d1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/30/2017 I need this! Thank you:)

AAKASH AGARWAL (ID: 000000dca3302e32) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/22/2016 Please provide multiple colors, the delete option(remove highlight) is not accessible in chrome. Great tool otherwise. Annotation would have been a plus.

Mark Engelbert (ID: 00000093292ef869) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 08/09/2016 I agree with other reviews that this is an excellent idea, but that the implementation is still lacking (can't load more than 20 entries while extension is enabled). Would also be great if this was compatible with Firefox through WebExtensions.
