Captured on your Mac
The extension reads the active page title, URL and selected text only when you use its toolbar button, its context menu or a shortcut you assigned. A screenshot covers only the visible part of the tab, and saving an image downloads only that image. Captured content goes to Flyout on the same Mac, without passing through the developer’s servers. The extension has no advertising or analytics.
Flyout stores notes locally. Optional iCloud sync is off by default; enabling it syncs notes through your Apple account.

Is the extension free?
Yes. The extension is free and requires the separately sold Flyout Mac app, with an active 7-day trial or license.
Does it save full articles?
No. A page capture saves its title and URL, and selected text keeps its links, lists and code blocks. You can also save a right-clicked image or a screenshot of the visible part of the page (Flyout 1.5.7 or later). PDFs and full-page archives are not supported.
Can I add to an existing note?
Yes. Choose an existing unlocked note or quick page and add at the beginning or end. You can also create a new note in a folder.
Does it work on Windows or other browsers?
On macOS 14 or later with Flyout 1.5.7 or later, the extension works in Google Chrome, Brave, Arc, Microsoft Edge, Vivaldi, Opera and Chromium; install it from the Chrome Web Store in each. Windows, Safari and Firefox are not supported.
Chrome cannot connect to Flyout. What should I do?
Install the latest Flyout Mac app, open it from Applications, then reopen the extension. Make sure your trial or license is active.
