Latest version
Version 3.0.12
Released 5 Sep 2026 - 888.87 kBWorks with firefox 142.0 and later✪ YOUR HIGHLIGHTS FIND THEIR PAGE
✔ The same page in several languages now counts as one page: your highlights come back whether you return through /es, /fr, with or without www, or from a campaign link
✔ When a site declares its own language versions, highlights follow it even across subdomains
✔ A highlight made while the page was in another language is now explained as such, instead of looking lost
✪ NEW
✔ Every highlight in the panel now has a three-dot button that slides its actions open: edit, copy, share and delete. They used to appear only while the mouse was over the card, so they were easy to miss
✔ "Open link" in the highlight toolbar: when you highlight over a link, you can follow it from the bar, and your note is saved first
✪ FIXED
✔ The panel title, the PDF viewer and the folder picker stayed in English when the interface was set to another language
✔ Highlights from the page you just left no longer stay on screen on sites that change page without reloadingSource code released under MIT Licence

✔ New "Other pages on this site" section: when you remember the site but not the page, it shows where your highlights are and what you highlighted on each one
✔ Opening one of those pages takes you straight to its highlight
✪ FIXED
✔ Clicking a highlight no longer opens a new tab every time on sites that redirect you elsewhere after loading
✔ If a site sends you to a different address and your highlight is not there, the panel explains it instead of leaving you searching
✔ The colour swatches in the theme picker were showing with no colourSource code released under MIT Licence
Version 3.0.10
Released 30 Aug 2026 - 876.33 kBWorks with firefox 142.0 and later✪ PDF VIEWER

Version 3.0.8
Released 5 Aug 2026 - 876.68 kBWorks with firefox 142.0 and later✪ HIGHLIGHTS THAT SURVIVE THE PAGE CHANGING
✔ Highlights now anchor to a stable point in the page, so cookie banners, ads or text added above them no longer make them disappear
✔ Highlights inside web components are restored correctly again
✔ When a highlight cannot be shown, the sidebar says so instead of failing silently, and tells you whether the text is gone from the page or has simply moved
✔ A highlight whose text merely moved can be recovered with one click on Restore, on every plan
✪ PDF AND OBSIDIAN
✔ In PDF, Undo no longer leaves a highlight listed in the sidebar but missing from the page
✔ Notes exported to Obsidian keep their formatting: a highlight spanning two paragraphs, or a multi-line note, no longer breaks out of the quote block
✔ Exported notes follow the language you chose in the extension, and are dated with your local day instead of UTC
✔ Obsidian sync detects conflicts before overwriting a note, instead of asking every time
✪ PRIVACY
✔ Websites can no longer detect that you have the extension installed
✔ The extension writes nothing to the browser console on the pages you visit
✔ One permission fewer than the previous version
✪ INTERFACE
✔ Manual highlight order with drag and drop, now preserved through export and import
✔ Several texts that ignored the language selected in the extension are now translated in English, Spanish and FrenchSource code released under MIT Licence
