Am I imagining things, or did there used to be an extension that highlights kanji you have learned in Japanese text for chrome?

Looked through here, couldn’t find

There used to be but I can’t remember what it was called.

Wanikanify?

Nah, that one converts eng -> Kanji, There used to be one that highlights kanji with a purple colour on pages with JP text (ie JP wikipedia)

I think there might have been more than one but the one I remember is WaniKanify.

That’s the one. Thanks, I’ll try it out.

Interesting. I’ll have to take this for a spin.

I would highly suggest using the app called “Your Brain” to recognize words you already know.
