We're excited to announce a new feature in Highlighty version 2.3.1 that gives you even more control over your browsing experience – Manual Search Mode. This feature was developed in response to user requests, aiming to provide a more customizable and efficient way to highlight content online.

Manual Search Mode: Empowering Users with On-Demand Searching

One of the most frequent requests we received was for greater flexibility when searching and highlighting text across web pages. Users wanted the ability to disable automatic searches and instead trigger the search function only when needed. Manual Search Mode does just that – allowing you to run searches exclusively when you press the designated hotkey, Shift + F.

How does it work?

With Manual Search Mode enabled, automatic searching is disabled while you navigate through websites or when adding new queries to your list. To perform a search, simply press Shift + F, and the highlighter extension will spring into action, finding and highlighting the terms you’re looking for. This feature is particularly useful when you want to browse freely without the distraction of constant highlighting, making your multi highlight tool even more versatile.

  1. Open Highlighty
  2. Click on the Menu dropdown to open the settings page
  3. Keep it on the Basic tab
  4. Open the Hotkey feature submenu
  5. Activate the first option, and use the feature on your preferred pages
  6. Additionally, please see the key combo set by clicking the cog icon
Manual search mode activated with Shift + F hotkey

Why Manual Search Mode?

We understand that different users have different needs. For some, automatic searching and highlighting can be a distraction, especially on content-heavy pages. Manual Search Mode offers a streamlined experience, letting you choose when and where to highlight text. This not only improves your workflow but also makes the highlighter extension more adaptable to various use cases.

User Feedback at the Core of Innovation

Manual Search Mode is another example of how we listen to our users and continuously improve based on your suggestions. This feature was developed in direct response to the feedback we received, demonstrating our commitment to making Highlighty the best multi highlight tool available. Your insights drive our innovation, and we’re always eager to hear more.

Free for All: Customization Without Compromise

As with all our updates, Manual Search Mode is available to all Highlighty users free of charge. We believe in providing powerful tools that enhance your online experience without adding extra costs. This feature ensures that your browsing is as efficient and personalized as possible, giving you the power to highlight content on your own terms.

What's Next? More User-Driven Features

As we roll out Manual Search Mode, we're already planning future updates. We remain committed to evolving Highlighty based on your needs and suggestions, ensuring that our highlighter extension continues to meet and exceed your expectations. Stay tuned for more exciting features that will further empower your online experience.
