Chrome Extension · v1.0

Get hilight for Chrome.

One small download. A minute to install. Then highlight anything on the web straight into your library.

Works on Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc & other Chromium browsers

Installation

Five quiet steps.

Chrome doesn't let extensions auto-install from outside the Web Store, so we load it as an unpacked folder. Takes about a minute.

Grab the extension package using the button below.

Double-click the downloaded file (or right-click → Extract).

Paste chrome://extensions into your address bar. Then flip the Developer mode toggle in the top-right corner.

Click Load unpacked (top-left) and select the unzipped hilight-extension folder. hilight will appear in your extensions list.

Click the puzzle icon in Chrome's toolbar and pin hilight. Then generate a connection token below and paste it into the popup.

Connect

Is it on the Chrome Web Store?: Not yet. We're in early access — installing unpacked gets you the latest build immediately.
Does it work in other browsers?: Anything Chromium-based: Edge, Brave, Arc, Opera, Vivaldi. Firefox support is on the roadmap.
What does the extension see?: Only the text you actively highlight, plus the page URL and title at the moment you save. Nothing is captured passively.
Can I revoke a token?: Yes — generate a fresh one in the panel above and revoke the old one. The device using it will stop syncing.
