In-page Highlighter is a powerful Chrome extension designed to instantly highlight any text you select on the current page, enhancing your browsing experience. Unlike Chrome's built-in search, this tool offers more efficiency and ease of use, allowing you to quickly spot all instances of the selected text without navigating away or performing extra steps.

Version 0.7 introduces a case-sensitive matching option for more precise highlights, while Version 0.5 added support for Chrome 33 and enabled simultaneous highlighting and search with no interference with Chrome's context menu. Ideal for researchers, students, and anyone who frequently scans web content, In-page Highlighter simplifies text selection and improves readability directly within your browser.

Much faster than other Highlighter Addons here :) But also this crashes Facebook pages (memory leaks), but not so often as the others, when marking "com" and so on. :( Another: when i mark text by double click only all same phrases where marked but the original text is unmarked then. This is annoying when i only want to copy text.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

In-page Highlighter requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

In-page Highlighter has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
