How to get: Login to flomo → Settings → Extensions & API → Copy

Connect flomo

To send notes back to flomo, paste the flomo record API into the Quick flomo settings page. flomo states that this feature requires flomo PRO. That is flomo's own membership, separate from Quick flomo Pro.

You can install without flomo PRO. Summaries, translation, vocabulary and review don't depend on it. The API address works like a key, so don't share it with anyone.

Why these permissions are needed

Selection translation, reading article text for summaries and capturing citation details all run on the current page, so the extension needs access to all websites. When you switch tabs, the side panel updates to the current page. Quick flomo does not collect browsing history.
