Highlight Text – Hop Highlighter for Long Pages

Description

Save highlights on webpage, organize them with tags, and jump back instantly using visual scroll markers. Hop Highlighter is a browser extension designed to make reading, researching, and navigating long webpages significantly easier and more efficient. When reading online articles, research papers, documentation, news sites, or blog posts, users frequently encounter passages they want to remember, revisit, or organize. Many highlighting tools allow marking text, but they often make it difficult to find those highlights again later. Hop Highlighter focuses on solving exactly this problem. Instead of simply highlighting text and leaving it buried inside long pages, Hop Highlighter provides a complete system that lets users mark important information, organize it with tags, and navigate between highlights instantly. The goal is simple: • capture important text quickly • organize it clearly • return to it instantly This turns ordinary reading into structured information gathering. ─────────────────── ⚡Version 1.1.1 Tag save fixes ⚡Version 1.1.0 – Improvements & Fixes Added a confirmation dialog before deleting highlights to prevent accidental removals.

When you read a webpage and find an important sentence, statistic, argument, or quote, you can simply select the text with your mouse. Hop Highlighter allows you to highlight the selected passage immediately. Highlighting works directly inside the page and becomes part of the reading flow. You can highlight: • important arguments • interesting quotes • key statistics • definitions • explanations • references • ideas for later Instead of copying text into notes or bookmarks, you simply mark it where it appears. This keeps the context intact and allows you to revisit the passage later exactly where it originally appeared. ------------------------------- 🎨 Multiple highlight colours Hop Highlighter supports multiple highlight colours so that different types of information can be visually separated. Colours can be used to represent categories such as: • key information • questions • references • important quotes • ideas • tasks Example usage: 🟡 yellow → key arguments 🔵 blue → references 🟠 orange → ideas Colour coding makes long texts easier to scan and helps the brain recognize patterns and priorities quickly. ──────────────────────────────── 🏷 Tag highlights for better organization Highlighting alone is helpful, but tagging adds another level of organization. After highlighting text, you can assign a tag to the highlight. Tags allow you to group information across an article or research topic. For example: • politics • economics • research • statistics • quote • idea • important • argument Tags help answer the question: "Why did I highlight this?" This is extremely valuable when reviewing information later. Hop Highlighter also remembers frequently used tags so they can be selected quickly without typing them again. Tagging becomes part of the normal highlighting workflow and only takes a second. ──────────────────────────────── ⚡ Jump between highlights instantly One of the most powerful features of Hop Highlighter is instant navigation. When highlights are created, the extension displays a vertical marker rail beside the page. Each highlight appears as a small marker on this rail. This provides a visual map of all important passages on the page. Instead of scrolling through long articles trying to relocate highlights, you can simply click on a marker. The page will jump directly to the corresponding highlighted section. This allows users to navigate long pages extremely quickly. Example use cases: • reviewing an article quickly • jumping between arguments in a debate • comparing different sections of a document • revisiting quotes while writing Even very long pages become easy to navigate. ──────────────────────────────── 📑 Review highlights in the popup Hop Highlighter also provides a popup overview where users can review their highlights. The popup displays a structured list of saved highlights including: • timestamp of the highlight • source website • highlighted text snippet • assigned tag This overview acts as a quick reference system for your collected information. From the popup you can: • jump to the highlight • review its context • manage your markers The popup interface is designed to be fast and readable so users can quickly browse their highlights. ──────────────────────────────── 🧭 Navigate long articles with ease Long-form content on the web can easily reach thousands of words. Without structure, it can be difficult to relocate important passages. Hop Highlighter solves this by turning highlights into navigation points. This allows readers to: • jump directly to important sections • scan key ideas quickly • review arguments efficiently • navigate research material faster The marker rail acts like a visual index for the page. ──────────────────────────────── ✏ Edit or delete highlights Sometimes highlights need to be adjusted or removed. Hop Highlighter makes this easy. You can: • remove highlights • edit tags • clean up markers This ensures that your highlight collection stays organized and relevant. ──────────────────────────────── 📚 Perfect for research and knowledge work Hop Highlighter is particularly useful for people who work with information online.
