Page updates highlights disappear.

⚠️ Important: If the page updates, the highlights are likely to disappear.

Muito lento pra marcar

Dificuldade ao selecionar a frase, ou marca tudo ou não marca nada
Deveria ser mais rápido para mudar de cores

Great Extension

For the longest time, I was looking for a simple to use highlighter app for safari, but couldn’t find a good one at a reasonable price. This is by far one of my fav extensions of all time.

Bien, mais dommage pour les iPads.

L’application est plutôt bien conçue et les notes sont pratiques. Cependant, le surlignement est gênant sur iPad : on ne surligne pas comme je l’aurais pensé avec l’Apple Pencil, mais en sélectionnant le texte. Je pense donc que je ne vais pas l’utiliser beaucoup. Dommage qu’on ne puisse pas réduire ou mettre les notes sur le côté avec des couleurs différentes, afin d’en avoir plusieurs en même temps.

The app is fairly well designed, and the notes are convenient. However, highlighting is awkward on the iPad: you don’t highlight as I expected with the Apple Pencil, but by selecting the text. So I don’t think I’ll use it much
It’s a pity that you can’t minimize or move notes to the side with different colors, so you can have several open at the same time.
