Save highlighted text from any webpage and collect it in one place. Reopen sources, export snippets, and work fully offline or with optional sync.

Features & Capabilities

Snipper is a lightweight Firefox extension for collecting text as you browse. Highlight any text on a webpage, save it instantly, and keep browsing. Snipper stores each snippet with its source, timestamp, and context, so you can return to it later without losing where it came from. Clicking a saved snippet reopens the original page and automatically highlights the exact section it was taken from — perfect for research, comparison, writing, or shopping. Snipper works completely offline using local storage. Optional Firefox Sync lets you share snippets across devices when you want, with a subtle visual indicator showing when sync is active.

Is Snipper Safe?

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.

Snipper requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. 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 Firefox add-on.

Snipper is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
