en | been using this for a long time, it the best period!! But recently i realize a new tap always opens up, refreshes and closes whenever i visit a new page. Why is this happening?? I've update my review. I started losing some highlights when pages refresh. I email support but never got a reply |

Just doesn't work. Highlighted page then refresh, 80% of highlights are gone, then add a new highlight and refresh, all gone except the last highlight. It only has one job to do and it doesn't do that. Not fit for purpose. | |

It works pretty good for me, I like it, but it has a feature that bothers me and a bug(I guess?): Feature: I can only find my highlighted pages under the folder of the month. I highlight those sentences because I might want to get back to it later, like months or even years later and I won't remember which folder should I look into - I believe if there would be a folder called 'new' (where the newly highlighted pages go) and if we could make new, custom folders and move the pages from one to another would be a big help. The bug: or I might just be dumb, but after clicking on the "Import" button ('Import your Google Bookmarks (you need to be signed in) into Chrome Bookmarks. This will create a 'Yawas' folder at the root of your Chrome Bookmarks) I lost all of my pages from the folder and don't find it anywhere (as there is no Yawas folder in the root). I am in the middle of a book and had (thank God, 'just') 2 chapters highlighted but now they are gone. | |

Spent a lot of time highlighting different parts of my book only to discover that most of them are now missing. Most definitely a deal breaker for me, I won't be using this again. | |

The functionality is good, but seems to occasionally lose a bunch of highlights, even when logged into Crome. 10/11/22 | |

it is simple and easy to use only for highlight, nothing more than that. it it useful for reading article but the developer should give provide 'delete highlight' option. then it will be more effective | |

Só marca a primeira página. Consegui marcar em um site que estava lendo. Mas quando tentei em outra página do mesmo site, não funcionou de jeito nenhum. | |

Estaba funcionandome bien hasta que en un rato dejé la página y por error la cerré, cuando la volví a abrir desde la carpeta donde se supone guarda el resaltado, ya me había borrado todas las anotaciones. :( | |

I installed Yawas as I thought it would be really helpful when doing research for Uni. I spent more than two hours reading an article and made 70+ highlights. The next day I went back to review what I found so I could write my essay and none of my highlights were saved. I was a little upset, but I was going to re-read the article anyway in case there were things I missed in my first read. I started reading and highlighting for a second time, refreshed my page and the highlights disappeared again. Not. Happy. Jan! |
