Toggle it with Alt+R, the popup, or a triple-click anywhere on the page (that last one is an option, on by default; it's ignored on links, buttons, and form fields) Highlighter — select text, pick a colour (yellow / green / pink / blue); highlights persist per-URL and are re-anchored on reload. Click a highlight to recolour or remove it. "Quick mode" (Alt+H) highlights the instant you select. There's an on/off toggle — off, selecting text does nothing special and existing highlights disappear until you switch it back on (Esc also dismisses the colour bar). Popup has per-page count, Copy all, and Clear page. Right-click dictionary (opt-in) — with it enabled in the popup, right-click a highlighted word to get a small definition card (api.dictionaryapi.dev, no key). This is the only network call the extension makes, and only that one word is sent — see PRIVACY.md. Draw / annotate — a full-page freehand layer for arrows, circles, scribbles, whatever. Toggle draw mode (Alt+D or the popup), a small toolbar appears on the page (colour, thin/medium/thick, pen/eraser, undo, clear); drag anywhere to draw. Turn draw mode off and the page is interactive again — the ink stays put and persists per-URL. Sticky notes — drop a draggable, resizable note anywhere on the page (Alt+N or the popup). Drag by its bar, drag the corner to resize, click the dot to recolour, collapse or delete. Notes persist per-URL. Show italics as bold instead · underline all links · reduce animation Reading-tool settings are stored in chrome.storage.sync. By default they apply to every site; the popup can also save a per-site override (e.g. a bigger font only on docs.fortinet.com). Highlights, annotations, and their tool prefs live in chrome.storage.local, keyed by origin + pathname + search. ## Rankings - #122,639 — Overall - #19 — comfort ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `storage` - `activeTab` - `clipboardWrite` - `scripting` ### Host permissions - `` - `https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/*` ### Content script matches - `` ## Safety - **Risk impact:** High risk impact - **Risk likelihood:** High risk likelihood ### Analysis details - Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site. - This extension was recently updated in the past month.
