Kindle App For Mac Export Notes

You can access your Kindle highlights from your Kindle itself, the apps, or the web app, but none of those are particularly handy, especially if you use your Kindle for research. Knotes makes it easier to access those notes right from your Mac. Thank you for your comment about the Kindle clipping/highlighting limit. I agree with you 100%! As you and I have both experienced, it can be very frustrating 🙁 Hopefully Amazon will eventually encourage/force publishers to allow unlimited highlighting on the Kindle. Best regards,-JD. Kindle Mate is a neat tool with rich features designed to sync, organize, import & export Kindle clippings (Kindle highlights and notes) and Kindle Vocabulary Builder words on your computer. This tool has not been updated since 2017. I forgot to include this in the original post, but the Kindle app for Windows and macOS has a notebook feature just like the one in the Kindle apps for Android and iOS. Its only export option is an HTML file. This is not an ideal option, but it does exist, which is better than nothing. This screenshot should help you find the export feature.

When you highlight or note a Kindle-purchased book on any Kindle device app, those annotations are automatically synced with Amazon's cloud. These are then visible at read.amazon.com, but there is no reason to believe that Amazon will continue to provide this service forever, and our ability to work with text in that hosted browser-based environment is limited.

We wanted a way cleanly to download our highlights onto our local computers, so we created a bookmarklet that permits one to easily extract highlights from the book's read.amazon.com page.

Bookcision is a Javascript bookmarklet, meaning it should run successfully in any modern browser on either the PC or Mac.

The bookmarklet yields a single page of cleanly styled highlights, which can then be copied to one's clipboard and pasted into a local text repository (OneNote, Evernote, DevonThink, etc.)

Chrome users will additionally be offered the ability to download the highlights in plain text, JSON, or XML formats.
