CalibreĮveryone knows that calibre is an ebook conversion and library management app, but sometimes some of its features are overlooked. This tool is installed as a bookmarklet, and you use it by clicking the bookmarklet while visiting the book’s page on .īookcision will reformat the page so you have a cleaner view of your notes, and you can then copy them to notepad (Chrome users can also download them).Īnd if you are using macOS, you (might) have an alternative: Notescraper.

K2E is a Chrome app that will automatically upload your Kindle Notes and highlights to Evernote.It costs $1 a month.

Much has changed in the past couple years since this post was first published Amazon has added new features to the Kindle platform and some of the tools I found then are no longer supported by their developers (in fact, one or two tools in this post were simply abandoned and had their domains snapped up by gay porn sites).
