Can you highlight text on mobile Safari and Chrome?

Yes. Marqly syncs desktop web highlights to mobile devices and allows mobile reading view annotations across iOS and Android.

Desktop browsers support extensions for web highlighting, but mobile browsers (especially iOS Safari and mobile Chrome) restrict background scripts.

How Mobile Highlighting Works with Marqly

Synced Highlights: Any text highlighted on desktop appears highlighted in your Marqly library on mobile.
Reader Mode: Open any saved link inside Marqly’s mobile reader view to read distraction-free, add notes, and highlight paragraphs on your smartphone or tablet.
