You can also configure a blacklisted domain list with patterns in the settings under "Excluded" domains. ➡️ Sort highlights manually: Highlights should appear in the same order as on the page. If not, use the drag & drop or arrows in your annotation sidebar to rearrange them as needed. ➡️ Customizable Sidebar: Change the sidebar width by dragging its edge, and align it on the left or right side of the page for a personalized experience. ➡️ Switch to Advanced Highlighter Mode in settings to organize highlights with headings, paragraphs, and more in the sidebar. ➡️ Multiple Colors: Choose from predefined standard and pastel shades or click the plus icon to add your own custom color. ➡️ Note Taking: Use standard keyboard shortcuts like CMD + B for bold, CMD + U for underline, etc., in the note-taking editor for efficient formatting. ➡️ Reader Mode: Click “Open in Reader” to view any article in a clean, distraction-free layout with customizable fonts, colors, and spacing. A copy of the article is saved so you can read and highlight it with full focus — even if the original changes or disappears. ➡️ Focus highlights on website: Click on a highlight in the sidebar, and the page will scroll directly to the highlighted section for quick access. ➡️ Color Mode: Switch between dark and light mode by clicking the sun/moon icon in the sidebar. ➡️ Your data is always private unless you choose to share it. ➡️ You may be exposed to affiliate links on sites you visit while using this extension, and you may be encouraged to click on them, but you are never required to do so. 🔐 YOUR PRIVACY MATTERS We believe your data belongs to you. ✔️ Your highlights, notes, and bookmarks are private by default ✔️ Nothing is ever sold or used to profile you ✔️ Secure sync and export, only accessible with your account We never use your data for advertising, lending, or unrelated purposes. 📜 TERMS OF SERVICE 📜 By installing the extension or signing up with an account, you agree to Web Highlights Terms of Service and Privacy Policy which you can find here: https://web-highlights.com/legal/terms-of-service ----- ❤️ This is a one-person project I’m building with love and late nights.
