And it’s almost perfect.
Matter somehow manages to be better than all of these while remaining simple.
And now it has scored the winning goal, with its web-highlighting extension.

First, a look at the best part of the whole Matter experience: highlighting the web.
Then you just read and highlight.
At any point, you might save the article, including highlights, to your Matter queue.

Or you’re able to just terminate the web page when youre done, and thats it.
Its desktop-only right now, but on iOS, the app is just as easy to use.
Matter, on the other hand, gets it right.
It presents only the text and images and lets you easily select and highlight text.
you might even use the Apple Pencil as a highlighter pen if you do it in the iPad app.

Its so simple and obvious that one wonders why nobody has done it before.
Thats not to say Matter is perfect.
Highlights should be private by default, and then I share what I want to share.
Its alsoa VC-funded serviceand, as such, subject to the usual perils.
You know how it works.
But until then, its the best read-later and highlighter app around.
