Description

Readwise Highlighter (Community) is a simple highlight creator extension for your Readwise account. Now you are not restricted by highlight sources Readwise supports syncing from, and can create highlights from any online webpage text you want. Simply do the following to create a new highlight and send it automatically to your Readwise account: 1. Install extension. 2. Click on extension in the browser bar, enter your Readwise access token (use the link on the extension to get your token), and click save. 3. Highlight any text on any webpage and right click the highlighted area. 4. Select one of the menu options to automatically send the highlighted text to your Readwise account as a highlight. **Updates** * Added "Create Highlight" option to edit the attributes of a highlight before sending it to Readwise. The original highlight creation is now labelled "Create Quick Highlight". Please send feedback and suggestions!

Broken, do not use! The only thing it does is ask for the access token.

Token will not save so what's the point of this being downloadable?

This extension was so useful, and has been great for a few years, but it's not work anymore. Seems as if it has been abandoned, as there are no answers from the devs either… :(
