Create highlight and add a note:

Currently you can view your highlights and notes on mobile and tablet. You can also view your My Highlights summary, create study guides, and print from mobile and tablet. At this time, you cannot create or delete highlights or add/edit/delete notes on mobile and tablet.

To make the most of the OpenStax highlighting and note taking feature, we recommend creating highlights on desktop and reviewing or studying on mobile and tablet.  Please visit the Creating highlights and adding notes on desktop and laptop help article for more information.

Viewing highlights and notes:

The highlights that you created will appear on the page itself so you can see them as you read the book.



The highlights that have a note attached to it are marked by an underline.



You can click anywhere on the highlight to open the note on the bottom of the screen.



My Highlights:

To view all highlights and notes chapter wise, click on My Highlights button in the toolbar on any book page.



A modal will pop up on the page. It will open all highlights and notes from the chapter you are currently on.



You can also filter the highlights and notes that you would like to see using the chapter and color filter options at the top of the modal.
