Excerpt - The Book Highlighter

Exactly what I was searching for, but please request you to have an option to backup the excerpt in case change of device. Would give full stars if that happens

The app is simple and fast, makes it really easy for scanning quotes from books. But there isn’t an option for exporting the data. It’ll be great if there’s an option to sign in, so that the data is not lost even when the device is changed.

Came across through Product Hunt. The experience is fast and reliable. Ryan, awesome work! Would appreciate it if we could highlight specific things within an excerpt.

This is the best app ever if you like to read.

The ability to batch delete would be nice.

To be transparent, I just started using this app. I am doing some research and wanted a way to capture various pieces of info and texts from various digital sources. This app is superb and has allowed me to do EXACTLY what I wanted to do. Bravo developers!! This app has let me create my own “books” with a “title” and “author”. I created a new book for each of the research sources I am using. Once you are in the book, you can add a “note,” “image,” “manual text” or “page number.” If you enter a “page number,” it will allow you to enter a “section” of that page and then follow that up with a note or image. The best part is it’s all free! I’ve created 16 books so far and entered several notes. If I could make only one suggestion, it would be to allow the ability to change the “sections” to custom categories instead only having the options in the drop down menu to choose from. Other than that great, excellent job!! And may I just say, THANK YOU for your commitment to creating a helpful and easy-to-use product. It is so unbelievably refreshing to come across an app that is clearly not driven by monitory motives. The full access to your features and the lack of annoying ads interrupting my work every 3 minutes was a welcomed and refreshing change!! Again, BRAVO!!

I love using this app to make a book list as well and take excerpts from books once I’ve finally read them! The text excerpt does an incredible job and the design of the app is just fantastic. It feels clean and organized and all of the colors are aweeesome. It is a great way to keep your highlights organized while skimming through multiple books a week!

I’ve been looking for a tool to make it easier to review books, take notes, store the nuggets and this one is fantastic!! Added all my books in and couldn’t be happier! Thank you for making this app

This app solves so many problems for me. I have often used tools like dragon dictate to take notes from books, however either the ease of a camera this app quickly takes notes and allows me to store page numbers and comments. This is absolutely a life changing app for researchers.

This app is very straight forward and was such a easy app to learn how to use. I can tell that this is going to be one of my all time favorites since I love reading!
