Description

The Scrible service streamlines the research and writing process for students and teachers, but is generally useful to anyone researching anything on the internet. The Scrible Toolbar extension allows you to save and work with articles in Scrible while browsing the web. Click the extension to launch our Toolbar on any webpage or PDF. This will save it to your Scrible account and open up a Toolbar with tools to highlight, comment, and more. If you revisit a page you've previously saved to your account with the Toolbar, the Toolbar will automatically launch and reload your annotations. Historically, teachers and students have had to manage multiple tools through the research and writing workflow. Scrible consolidates those tools in one place, streamlining a student's process of curating, annotating, citing and writing. Our Toolbar lets you: - Save web pages, PDFs and database articles instantly - Highlight key facts and passages to refer to later - Annotate and add comments to capture first thoughts Once pages are saved, in the Scrible Library users can: - Quickly browse and full text search through sources - Organize source information with categorical tags - Select sources to add to a bibliography Sign into your Scrible account to access your Scrible Library or sign up for a free account at https://www.scrible.com/sign-in/ Scrible supports learning across multiple content areas (e.g. ELA, social studies, science, foreign language), programs (e.g. AP Capstone, IB), support areas (e.g. SPED, ELL), project types (e.g. science fair, National History Day) and initiatives (e.g. personalized learning, project based learning, writing across the curriculum). Scrible also supports special education and ELL students and educators. Learn more at https://www.scrible.com/ Have any questions? Visit our Help Page ( https://www.scrible.com/help/ ) — Team Scrible

At first when I was using it, it worked really well but then after the FIRST time it never worked again it wont pop up on websites unless it is the google home screen. I have tried to open it up on all kinds of different websites. This is really dissibonting because I needed it for school. You should really fix this.

It would be nice if it worked on PDFs and not just websites. Absolutely useless.

I REALLY wanted this extension to work. Unfortunately in Chrome version 60.0.3112.101 (64 bit) this extension has no effect at all. I receive the following error for three external files (2 js, 1 css): Refused to load the script 'https://www.scrible.com/app/web-toolbar/main.9231acf557e6d3f13b29.bundle.js' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src assets-cdn.github.com". It looks like changing CDN's to Github could fix this issue.

Doesn't do anything. There's a toolbar at the bottom of the browser window- ugly as hell I might add - and the highlight and comment options do nothing to a live webpage. The scrible website claims "Make comments directly on webpages." This does not actually work. Useless and uninstalled.

The toolbar is not loading in Chrome Version 49.0.2623.87 m (64-bit) for Windows 8.1. I have all 3 boxes in settings checked.

Inefficient and complicated, but better than some alternatives

I cant really make notes part from comments, Microsoft edge has a better editing feature for its pdfs.

Seems great in theory but every time I go to use it, it lags out and crashes my tab. I did get it to work once and it was like a 4/5. The sources feature is pretty useful but Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V works pretty well too.

Not the greatest, but good for a free app. Most of their tools are unnecessary.

could be much much much better; ui should be updated as with the auto fill-in formulas

annoying to use...

Great app but very slow and ugly interface. It has loading issues at times too. But seriously this app has the potential to be the best of its type.

This extension has amazing potential... I love that it lets me highlight stuff across the internet, then access and search through a database of all the quotes I've collected. Can't seem to find any other app that does this, and it's absolutely amazing for anyone that does research across the internet. However, it's extremely slow and clunky and the design is Web 1.0 terrible. You guys are onto something great, I hope you are able to invest in making this tool better! I would happily pay for this extension if it were sleeker and faster!!

It is useful, but my UX does not come out to be good.

Does not appear in every page and don't forget the page where you can log in to your scrible account

Missing a lot of options and repeatedly asks me to log-in even when I've checked to remember password.
