User reviews
Really useful. I use it many times every day. I wish you could change highlight colours.
Out of all of the highlighter extensions available for Firefox this is the only one that works in the secure window I have to use for work. Easy to use, no extra steps.. just select the text and highlight. Thank you!
I love it. I wish there was cloud support for the pages that are highlighted.
