Description
Add the words you meet on any page to your Lexpad notebook, with the meaning shown as you add. Lexpad is a personal vocabulary notebook with spaced repetition. This extension is the fastest way to fill it: while you read, watch or join a call, select a word and a small button appears. NEW IN 0.5.0 • Video subtitles on other sites too, not only YouTube: TED, lessons with an HTML5 video and common web players. Rest your pointer on a subtitle and the video waits; click a word, or drag across a few, and the Lexpad card opens. • Live captions in Google Meet. Turn captions on in the call and rest your pointer on them: a still copy of the last lines appears, so the words stop moving while you click. "Earlier" shows the last ten lines, for a word said a moment ago. Only the word you click and its line are saved, never speaker names. • Film and series services and other video players can be turned on per site from the toolbar popup. For a player Lexpad does not know, choose "Try subtitles on this site". • You decide where Lexpad runs. Turn it off on any site with the switch at the top of the popup, the small "⋯" beside the add button, or the right-click menu. The popup lists your sites; add or remove one at any time. WORDS FROM YOUTUBE SUBTITLES • On YouTube, rest your pointer on a subtitle and the video waits. Click a word, or drag across a few, and the Lexpad card opens on the video with its meaning. • The subtitle line is saved as the example, and the moment in the video as your private note. Move away or close the card and the video plays on. • Works in theater mode, full screen and the mini player, with subtitles in any language, including auto-generated ones. • Turn it off, or just the pause, from the toolbar popup. WHAT IT DOES • Click the button, or right-click a selection and choose "Add to Lexpad". • A card shows the meaning, a short definition and an example while the word is added, so a word you did not know is explained on the spot. Meanings are written in the language of your notebook. • The sentence you met the word in is saved as its first example, and the page as a private note, so you remember where it came from. • Choose which notebook new words go to from the toolbar popup, and switch the selection button off if you prefer the right-click menu. • Enter adds, Escape closes. Light and dark themes follow your system. YOUR ACCOUNT The extension never asks for your password. Click "Connect to Lexpad", allow it in the Lexpad web app, and it gets a session of its own. It appears in Lexpad under Settings → Signed-in devices, where you can sign it out at any time. WHAT IT SENDS Only when you add a word: the selected text, the sentence around it, and the page's address and title go to Lexpad's own servers (api.lexpad.app) and nowhere else. Nothing is sent while you browse, watch or talk. No analytics, no trackers. • Videos: the subtitle line, the page title and the moment are saved with a word only when you add it. • Meetings: captions stay in the page's memory and are never stored or sent. A word you add carries only its line and "Google Meet" with the date; no meeting link, title or names. • Your list of sites stays in your browser. No new permissions in this version: storage, the right-click menu and access to Lexpad's API only. Lexpad is free. A Lexpad account is required: https://app.lexpad.app
