- Rated 4 out of 5by Ivy, 2 months agoProbably one of the best highlighter extensions that I've tried on Firefox so far. The issue I have with it is that it has a bit of conflict with more heavier web pages, causing certain web pages to boot up longer or even crash them all together.

- Rated 5 out of 5by bLoodyBios, 3 months ago5 stars. Addon is great. Though, a bit too much advertising, ad inserts, and premium offers.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Franz, 5 months agoSince the developer replied that the questionable Mellowtel script is no longer used in this extension, I will give it another try. Four stars alone for rewarding a responsive and privacy-respecting developer.
Developer response
posted 5 months agoHi Franz, you’re right – I was using the Mellowtel library in Web Highlights to support the environment by planting trees (more on that here: https://web-highlights.com/blog/planting-trees-worldwide-with-our-browser-extension/).
That said, after some thought, I decided to remove the Mellowtel library as it doesn’t fully align with Web Highlights Privacy Policy. I am now exploring other ways to support the environment.
Please try the new version – I hope you’ll enjoy using Web Highlights again.
Thanks!

Like any add-on, it takes up some memory, and on occasion it has slowed down my internet response time on some applications. I simply disable the feature during those times, but it is a valuable tool in highlighting text for the articles and studies that I like to read.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Knut Remi, 6 months agoEver find yourself coming back to a page to reference the important text? Well, highlight it!
That way you can see what you wanted to remember at a glance in your Web Highlights dashboard, or even go to the page and find your highlights in the text.
The powerful features sweeten the deal even more! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19057644, 6 months agoit's great, it works as I expected it to and how I want it to. The only issue is when taking notes if I press the `s` button it toggles the web-highlighter menu on/off. Thus I'm unable to use `s` when taking notes on it.
