✔ Clicking a highlight no longer opens a new tab every time on sites that redirect you elsewhere after loading
✔ If a site sends you to a different address and your highlight is not there, the panel explains it instead of leaving you searching

Version 3.0.8
Released Aug 5, 2026 - 876.68 KBWorks with firefox 142.0 and later✪ HIGHLIGHTS THAT SURVIVE THE PAGE CHANGING
✔ Highlights now anchor to a stable point in the page, so cookie banners, ads or text added above them no longer make them disappear
✔ Highlights inside web components are restored correctly again
✔ When a highlight cannot be shown, the sidebar says so instead of failing silently, and tells you whether the text is gone from the page or has simply moved
✔ A highlight whose text merely moved can be recovered with one click on Restore, on every plan
✪ PDF AND OBSIDIAN
✔ In PDF, Undo no longer leaves a highlight listed in the sidebar but missing from the page
✔ Notes exported to Obsidian keep their formatting: a highlight spanning two paragraphs, or a multi-line note, no longer breaks out of the quote block
✔ Exported notes follow the language you chose in the extension, and are dated with your local day instead of UTC
✔ Obsidian sync detects conflicts before overwriting a note, instead of asking every time
✪ PRIVACY
✔ Websites can no longer detect that you have the extension installed
✔ The extension writes nothing to the browser console on the pages you visit
✔ One permission fewer than the previous version
✪ INTERFACE
✔ Manual highlight order with drag and drop, now preserved through export and import
✔ Several texts that ignored the language selected in the extension are now translated in English, Spanish and FrenchSource code released under MIT License
