Now, let me explain in detail how it works:

Edit / Delete highlights and notes

Edit button

Hover your mouse on a highlight/note, and you will see the edit button. Click it and you will enter edit mode.

Save changes

After edit, press the save button (check mark) to save changes, or press the cancel button (times) to discard changes.

Keyboard shortcuts

  • ⌘ + F to search, esc to exit search mode
  • ⌘ + E to export
  • ⌘ + S to sync from Kindle (if connected)
  • ⌘ + I to import from txt file
  • ⌘ + 1 to hide side bar
  • ⌘ + 2 to show side bar

Keyboard navigation

  • Use arrow key to navigate to the book above current book
  • Use arrow key to navigate to the book above current book
  • When viewing a book, click anywhere in the book area, then you can use space key to scroll down page by page

Sort by Location / Time

Sort button

  • Press the Pin button to sort highlights and notes by location or page in ascending order.
  • Press the Clock button to sort highlights and notes by time in ascending order.

Select and import from My Clippings.txt file

Now you can select any Kindle My Clippings.txt file from your disk to import to Knotes.

It’s a great way to import old backups.

You can import by:

  • Menu bar File -> Import My Clippings.txt
  • Or use keyboard shortcut ⌘ + I

UI language support for French🇫🇷, Portuguese🇵🇹 and Russian🇷🇺

This language supports are requested and contributed by the community. Cheers! Good job!

Big thanks to Elie Fontana for helping translate Knotes to French, Alexandre Colares for translating Knotes to Portuguese and Michael Stebackov for translating Knotes to Russian!

Support sync from Kindle using any language

Users who use Deutsch🇩🇪, Italiano🇮🇹, 日本語🇯🇵 and Nederlands🇳🇱 can also sync highlights and notes to Knotes now!

UI language support for these languages will be add in future. Help are appreciated! Knotes ❤️ contributors!

In the end

Thank you all for helping me develop Knotes 1.0.3. Enjoy!

For the next few weeks, I will focus on developing Knotes 1.1.0 which enables exporting highlights and notes to Evernote.
