Frustrated
Just downloaded, Didn’t see any user instructions. Within 30min I found 1) the app puts notes in reverse order 2) tags are not editable (misspelled words). At this point the only way to correct is to delete book & start over.
Amazing
This is the my favorite app and it’s a must for any bibliosmile!
Highlighted Review
I love this app.
Love this app
I use the widget to show all of of my favorite quotes from the books that I’ve read!
Great app
Really great app. Works exactly how you’d want it to work.
Love this app
Taking notes in books just became easier. You simply scan the page and highlight what you want to keep. Or, make your own notes.
The tags and page numbers are also a huge help.

One of My Favorites
This app has become a critical part of my weekly workflow. I read, research, and put together presentations. This allows me to easily capture all the highlights from my physical books and store them digitally so I can access them any time, anywhere. This has truly been a game changer for me. I wish I had this in college or earlier in my career. Highly recommend!

Finally - Simple, Clean and Thoughtful
I downloaded a ton of apps to track my paperback book highlights. This one does it thoughtfully (able to highlight multiple sections at a time!) and keeps things simple. You can search the highlights and your custom notes for each of those highlights very easily. Plus you can export. Give this a shot, you won’t be disappointed. And if you like it, please support the creator, it’s free without ads and he updates the app regularly. Let’s reward him for the work that he’s put into this masterpiece!

Simply Phenomenal!
You HAVE to try this. It’s honestly so good!
Excellent app, very helpful!
I like how quick and easy the app is. Well done.
Everything I wanted!
Apps like these remind me that if there’s an app I’ve always imagined and desired, I should probably look it up because it might already exist. If you’re someone like me who has struggled with scanning text using the native Apple Notes app, you’re in for a real treat with this one — and it’s free, no less, with zero ads!
Dragging segments of text is effortless, page numbers are easily stored and organized, there are options for personal notes and thoughts, books are listed with cover art so they’re easily discoverable, keyword search filters, and an export feature. And did I mention it’s free? A no-brainer if you suffer from book amnesia.

Essential for academics
As a graduate student, constantly reading and needing to preserve important bits of what I read, this app has quickly become essential in my study and research. I cannot recommend it enough!
Cette application est génial! Je l’utilise pratiquement tous les jours!
Merci
Simple but powerful
I love the simple design and how useful it is. I use a lot not only to highlight physical books but ebooks as well. The new widget feature is amazing.
One of the best reading apps around
Truly, it’s well designed, useful, and does exactly what most readers (myself included) want: help you track and remember what you read. Used it for years and will forever!
This has served me best of all apps
There are no accidents in the universe and this app proved it again. I never look in the App Store but for some reason one day I did and happened to see this app. I thought “wow” I hope this works.
And it did. I read over 50 books a year and am never without a highlighter. But when I finish the book and put it away, all that effort seems lost. Now I can have all the pertinent material right at the tips of my fingers.
Of all the apps I have I use maybe 4 routinely. This is one of those 4 and I am so grateful to the developer.

Response from developer
Thank you for sharing! Means a lot. Enjoy the app. Damir, creator of the app
The best mobile electronic annotation app
I say best because the workflow I use is so useful and practical. I take a screenshot on my phone, import it, select and annotate. What I wish it did was to go beyond the category concept of books to include a podcast, video or web page. I make collections with these names but they’re all under the aegis of Books!
If it could export all annotations as markdown files that would be the cherry on the whipped cream…

Perfect in every way
One of those apps that does not re-invent the wheel, rather solves a glaring gap in our reading lives, and does it very well. Highly recommend.
Begeistert
Ich bin wirklich begeistert von der App! Die Erkennung von Sätzen und Paragraphen funktioniert sehr gut. Das Highlighting funktioniert schnell und die Zitate können einfach exportiert werden.
Wonderful and extremely well-designed
I recently decided to replace a well-known service with Highlighted, and I'm very happy. To be clear, I'm mostly using the app with an e-book reader, and it works just as well as it does with physical books. Yes, it's a manual process, but I don't mind the added focus this requires. I'm also genuinely impressed by the details included to streamline the import process (multiple scans, numbered selections, review etc).
Two things I'd note: 1) formatting breaks tend to be seen as returns, and 2) it would be fantastic if a custom template could be used with the Markdown export option. But really: well done.
