Save to Day One from your browser.
Quickly capture links, highlights, and notes to your journal with our browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
Save pages in one click.
Whether you’re researching, bookmarking, or saving a moment of inspiration, the Day One extension makes it easy to send content from the web straight to your journal.
Highlight and save text.
Select any text on a webpage, right-click, and choose Save to Day One. Your selected text will be saved as a new journal entry with the source link.
Stay organized automatically.
The first time you use the extension, Day One creates a Bookmarks journal so your saved pages and highlights stay separate from personal entries (unless you choose otherwise).
Add context with notes and tags.
Include a quick note or custom tags to help you find entries later by topic, theme, or project.
Private by design.
Like everything in Day One, anything saved through the extension is end-to-end encrypted, stored securely in your account, and synced across your devices.
