About
Clear Text — Сlear the formatting from the selected text in one click. Tired of messy formatting when copying material from websites? Clear Text helps you remove format text instantly. This lightweight Chrome extension cleans up content, strips hidden styles, and delivers plain, minimal output — fast, simple, and secure. ✨ The Fastest Way to Remove Formatting When Copying Every time you transfer content from a webpage, you also bring along hidden HTML, fonts, colors, and inline styles. This "junk code" can break layouts in Google Docs, Notion, or email. Clear Text solves this by cleaning your selection when you copy — not after pasting. ✅ How It Works When you select content, the extension uses the Clipboard API to extract only the plaintext version. If the API is blocked , it falls back to a secure method using a temporary textarea — ensuring compatibility everywhere. It acts as an HTML stripper, removing all markup, scripts, and inline styles. The result? Clean, readable content — perfect for reuse. Install the extension from Chrome Web Store Select any passage on a page Right-click → choose "Copy Clear Text" Paste anywhere — and enjoy format-free, pure content The icon briefly changes — visual confirmation of a clear copy 🚀 Key Features One-click cleanup — no popups, no delays Removes HTML, CSS, links, and invisible code Lightweight and secure — no data leaves your browser Ideal for clean up text remove styles workflows¶ 🔍 Why It’s Different Most tools only offer “paste as plain” — but formatting is already copied. Clear Text acts first: clear the text, remove formatting, clean up text — all in one click. No windows. No settings. Just right-click → copy and paste clear text. ClearText integrates directly into the context menu to clear the formatting from the selected text instantly. It’s perfect for users who need to cleanup text and remove styles without switching tabs or losing focus. A fast text format remover and html stripper for clear, plaintext results. 📚 Who Uses It?
