| 2025-01-15 |  | | en | Originally was going to say it doesn't work but I just had to refresh my screens after installing the extension. I love it!! Love that I could create my own shortcut. I used cmd + H to highlight which is more convenient than the original for me |

| 2024-10-26 |  | | de | Der Highlighter funktioniert nicht mehr. Ich habe ihn von der Leiste als gepinnt kurz entfernt. Als ich ihn wieder angepinnt habe, ging gar nichts mehr. |
| 2024-10-07 |  | | en | I've enjoyed this addon for months. I switched to this from another highlighter addon as this one would actually save the highlights in a more reliable manner. Recently it's stopped working though; my old highlights are still there, but if I try to make any new ones they disappear when I refresh the page. Hopefully this will be fixed as I've found this addon very helpful. I'm using it on the edge browser. |
