Hey Hunters, We're finally launching "LINER for iOS" on Product Hunt! LINER is a mobile web highlighting app, That helps you highlight and save text on the web :) I find that I'm reading more and more content on my mobile. While I could simply archive the articles that I read, I also want to archive the "sentences" that I fell in love with as well. What articles I read is a personal matter to me, and it's important that I have control over what content goes public. Liner highlights are "private" by default, and you can manually share highlighted pages if you want. You can even share highlighted pages to your friends who don't have LINER installed :0 Check out the highlighted version of " The brilliant mechanics of Pokémon Go | TechCrunch" Communicating ideas online is difficult. Sometimes you have no idea why your friends+coworkers+goldfish share articles with you :/ Highlighting lets you point out as important sentences by highlighting specific sentences from a 100 page document!!! We're a productivity obsessed team, that just wants to organize the web. Which is why you can easily export your LINER Highlights into Evernote! Highlight your favorite phrases from WaitButWhy, TechCrunch, Paul Graham's Blog and Wikipedia. Then export your Liner highlights into Evernote with 1-click :) Happy Highlighting~ Jinu from LINER P.S. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions in the comment section. We don't sleep, eat, or blink so your questions should be answered fast enough 0_0

Hi you had a typo in your email. We fixed your typo. Could you please try again?
Maker
Currently, we're opening up all "Premium" features on mobile for a limited time :)
Maker
It's been an interesting campaign! Just wanted to answer some questions that arose: 1. LINER is primarily a private highlighting tool. We think highlighting is an innately private activity. That's why we're building a private-highlighting-service over a public-highlighting-service. 2. LINER is a web highlighter that helps you highlight the web, Kindle is for ebooks you own. 3. We're going to add IFTTT integration in the future. 4. We're going to add LINER for Safari in the future :) Happy Highlighting~
Maker
In order to promote the iOS app more. We decided to unlock all premium features for a limited time~ Please let me know if you have anymore questions :)
Maker
Our team doesn't really eat, sleep, or blink. So your questions will always be answered with haste.
More and more people I know are switching to Safari! I will wait for the Safari extension if it ever comes.
Maker
We're currently developing LINER for Safari. It should be out soon. Ultimately we're going to aggregate highlights from every platform.
Maker
We're currently focusing on Chrome (The most widely used Internet browser). We'll tackle LINER for Safari and LINER for Firefox next!
Maker
I'll let you know when LINER for Safari is ready :)
anyway we can get notified once it's out for Safari? Really would start using it but afraid might forget to check
Maker
We'll make a waiting list so people can get notified when LINER for Safari is finished.

"There’s a lost art of deep-reading when transitioning to digital. The feeling of dragging your finger along pages, the accomplishment of leaving small notes on the edges of pages. A tattered book was the symbol of a well read book. While I would love to carry around three hard-cover books, I find that I’m reading more and more content on my mobile. While you could simply archive the articles that you read, sometimes you want to archive the “sentences” that you fell in love with as well. Highlighting while you read creates a history of sentences that resonated with you. An actually road-map of the words that inspired you. LINER helps bring back deep-reading. We help you remember the most important phrases through highlights, we enable more targeted communication by emphasizing and auto-focusing the screen to select passages, we filter out excessive noise so you can truly focus on what’s important."

Special thanks for helping us hunt LINER :)
Maker
Thanks for hunting LINER, hope your cold gets better!
Maker
Thank you! I deeply appreciate it :)
Curious if you have developed the use case for this: I "line" articles and am able to export those to an email OR assemble a list of "lines" that I can then create a digest email for people? Would help in research, reporting, and even e-news distribution.
Maker
The LINER highlights you made are sent to you in an email reminder. You can also export your highlights to Evernote and email via a link. Here's an example of a highlighted link -
Maker
LINER highlights can be exported to Evernote, email, and messenger. You can also import and highlight your Pocket/Instapaper articles~
so I extend it to an email after export to those services. Gotcha
Maker
You can share highlighted pages via email by sending your friends a highlighted link like this -
Maker
You can also send highlighted links via messenger. We're going to add Messenger, WhatsApp, and SnapChat integration in the future -
Does this work in Kindle app? I know they may have restrictions on text export. Would be a killer use case on its own.
Maker
Currently, LINER highlights do not work on Kindle. We'll try to make LINER highlights work on Kindle in the future.
Maker
Utlimately we want LINER to work on Kindle, Google Books, and basically everywhere. You can highlight PDF files here -
Maker
Thanks for the reply! I'll let you know when Kindle integration is ready :)
Awesome! I have been looking for something like this for so long!
Maker
Thanks for the feedback. Please let us know if you need any help :)
Maker
LINER was developed out of a personal need. There simply were no suitable highlighting services that synced with the cloud. So we went out to make the best highlighter in the world and Mars.
Maker
And just to let you know, it's more powerful to use LINER for iOS and LINER for Chrome together ()
I interested in IFTTT integration.
Maker
IFTTT integration is coming soon! Personally I'm looking forward to this integration the most as well!
Maker
We have IFTTT integration in our to-do-list. We'll try to get through our development process faster.
Maker
Thanks for the reply! I'll let you know when IFTTT integration is ready :)
Wow! This is just amazingly wonderful to use. I'm a big fan of Diigo and this just blew it away. Can't wait to use it more!
Maker
Good to hear! LINER is more focused on highlighting text on providing a universal highlighting service across all platforms.
Maker
We think Diigo is an amazing service too!
Maker
Thanks Tom! Supercharge LINER for iOS by using it with LINER for Chrome -
Finally an ios version! Hope it's as good as the chrome version! Kudos to the dev team!
Maker
Thanks! We'll make LINER for Safari and LINER for Firefox soon!
Maker
Thanks! Personally I use LINER for iOS more than LINER for Chrome!
Maker
LINER for Android will also be amazing~
