About QuickClip Capture

Fastest & Beautiful Web Clipper for Obsidian Users ------------------------------------ Zero-friction capture that lands in your Obsidian vault, exactly where you want it. The extension lives between the open web and your personal knowledge base. Every interaction feels instant: select, clip, done. No copy-paste, no tab-switching, no reformatting. Your Obsidian vault structure (folders, tags, daily notes) is respected without you needing to leave the browser. ------------------------------------ What it does: Select any text on any page → hit Cmd+Shift+S (or Ctrl+Shift+S) → it's ready to be saved in Obsidian. That's the whole pitch. But there's more if you care: - Save full articles as clean Markdown - Save timestamped YouTube and Vimeo clips - Save PDF highlights from Chrome's built-in viewer with a right-click — page number included, works for web and local files - Save any tweet by clicking the QuickClip Capture icon on it - Save images with a right-click - Saves to any folder in your vault, with full folder tree navigation - Supports multiple vaults — switch between them from the toolbar - Three save modes: new file every time, always to one file, or drop into today's daily note - Tag suggestions based on your clip history for that domain - Detects duplicate clips so you don't save the same thing twice - Saved highlights stay marked when you return to a page - Shows vault online/offline status so you're never surprised by a failed save - All your data is saved locally Works over Local REST API (free Obsidian plugin). HTTP and HTTPS both supported. ------------------------------------ Who it's for: Researchers, writers, PKM nerds, and anyone who's tired of their "read later" pile never getting read. If your second brain lives in Obsidian, this is the missing nerve ending between the web and your vault. ------------------------------------ Changelog: v2.0 — QuickClip is now QuickClip Capture. Four new clip types: save full articles as clean Markdown, save timestamped YouTube and Vimeo clips to a per-video file, save PDF highlights from Chrome's built-in viewer with page number, and save tweets with a dedicated icon next to it. The save button now adapts to whatever you're capturing so you always know what you're about to save. Pages that can't be clipped tell you why and suggest what you can do instead. Highlights restore more reliably on revisit, including on React/Next.js pages and back/forward navigation. v1.3 makes QuickClip smarter and more aware of your vault. Clips from the same page now collect under a single heading in your notes automatically, and those headings stay accurate even if the page title changes. Your saved highlights stay marked when you revisit a page, so you always know what you've already captured. Tag suggestions learn from your past clips and nudge you with the right tags as you save. Clip history now lives inside your vault — it survives reinstalls and syncs across devices (if saved on cloud drive). Prepend mode works for all save modes now, not just Daily Note, and saves are roughly twice as fast. The interface has been polished throughout. v1.2.3 - Bug fixes and minor improvements — prepend toggle for Daily Note mode, fixed blank status on image clips, anonymous analytics, under the hood security and performance improvements. v1.2.2 - Save images with a right-click. Highlights now carry their links and inline images. Vault names are customizable with duplicate detection. New settings menu, What's New tab, and fresh branding. v1.2.1 - Vault switcher now shows live online/offline status per vault v1.2 - Multi-vault support — add and switch between vaults from the toolbar
