Web Highlighter – Mark and Save Text on Any Page by Lakeside Apps

Web Highlighter lets you mark text on any website like a pen on paper. Select a passage, pick a color, and it stays there. When you come back, your marks are restored. Free with no limit and no account. Pro: $5.99 once, no subscription.

WHAT IT DOES
Select words, sentences or whole paragraphs and color them yellow, green, blue or pink. Every mark is saved for that address and drawn again on your next visit, even after a reload or when the site has changed its layout. The extension stores the text you marked together with a few words around it, so it finds the right spot again on sites that load their content late or rebuild it.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Select some text.
2. Click a color in the small toolbar, use the right-click menu or press Alt+Shift+H.
3. Click the toolbar icon to see the list for the current tab, jump to an entry or delete it.

FREE
• Unlimited highlights on every site, in four colors.
• Saved locally for each address and restored when you return.
• A list of the marks in the current tab, with jump and delete.
• Backup of everything to a JSON file and restore on another computer.
• Optional automatic restore as soon as a page opens.

PRO ($5.99, LIFETIME)
• Add a note to each highlighted passage.
• One overview of all pages with search and tags.
• Export to Markdown, CSV or HTML for your notes app.
• Up to four custom colors of your own.

PRIVACY
Everything stays in your browser. Your marks and notes are never uploaded, and there is no account or cloud. Without automatic restore the extension only touches a tab when you click it, use the shortcut or the menu. Automatic restore asks for access to all websites so it can show your marks the moment a page opens; you can turn it off at any time. The only data sent anywhere is the email address you enter when you buy Pro, which is used to check your purchase.
