User reviews
Users praise Web Clipper for its rich features, reliability, and support across multiple note platforms, likening it favorably to native clippers. However, multiple reviews highlight poor or no Obsidian support, the inconvenience of mandatory account binding, and lack of efficient image hosting automation. Additionally, users miss promised screenshot tools and desire improved user interface that remembers settings and simplifies operations. Overall, it's a powerful tool with room for enhancements, especially for Obsidian integration and image management.
Pros
- Highly reliable and more feature-rich compared to native clippers like Notion's own.
- Supports multiple note-taking platforms such as Notion, OneNote, Flowus, Joplin, and GitHub.
- Excellent at recognizing and clipping code segments.
- Open-source and free to use.
Cons
- Insufficient or no support for Obsidian, causing user frustration.
- Requires account binding before use, which interrupts workflow and is seen as annoying.
- Lacks automatic image upload to external image hosts; users want features like automatic image hosting (e.g., Ali OSS, S3).
- Missing screenshot functionality and annotation capabilities despite being advertised.
- UI/UX can be confusing or cumbersome; users want it streamlined, including remembering last used repository or folder.

Nils Lindemann, 2025-04-18The extenstion is the best in its class. in many cases better than natives ones of the apps it serves for. And it is phenomenal.
One thing to improve: is to make the extenstion the remember last used repository.
Well empty field is useless anyway and user ofter work on one project during a certain period and hence all this adding will in the same repo - so why not to make the extention to remember the last one used?
