About
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.
