MultiHighlighter is a decent highlighter with a simple input box and no settings (e.g., always fragment of words, case insensitive, diacritic sensitive). It's a pity that it does not highlight words in iFrames. But the main issue is that, it uses Manifest V2, which will soon be deprecated, and the developer hasn't updated it since 2014! Unless this changes, I recommend current users try my own highlighter, Multi Find, for a more customizable and future-proof experience: https://chromewebstor... Show more

this thing is stupid. i'm trying to highlight terms on the page. and it does that. but if you have an open box of keywords - it erases the word as it finds it. its gone, just gone. its like it turned it into a find and replace, its not white, its just missing now. i think this is what i wanted in a program if it just highlighted things. but to make it vanish too? that's stupid. i don't get that.

I'd recommend the less polished looking, but having tons more functionality addon SearchBar instead. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/searchbar/fjefgkhmchopegjeicnblodnidbammed Enjoy -- you can thank me later.
