Great tool at first, but now it forces you to use yahoo.com as your search engine. Do not use this app.

Nick Anthony, 2020-08-10SCUM OF THE CHROME WEB STORE! Works, but is malware.
This extension serves its purpose as a highlighter, but after around a month of using it. It started to redirect all my searches to coolnewtabthemes.com and later yahoo.com; jacking my search queries in the process. Such a disappointment to have malware in such a simple and innocent extension. Disabling/uninstalling this extension resolved my issue.
