Ctrl+FLASH – Enhanced text search with pulsating Ctrl+F highlights

Summary: Ctrl+FLASH replaces the standard Ctrl+F with a flashing, pulsating highlight to improve text visibility during searches. It supports case sensitivity, keyboard navigation, and offers three adjustable flash speeds. The extension runs entirely locally without tracking or sending data externally.

What it does

Ctrl+FLASH enhances text search by applying a disco-mode pulsating highlight to matched words, making them easier to locate on the page. Users can control flash speed and navigate results with keyboard arrows.

Who it's for

It is designed for users who struggle to find highlighted text with standard Ctrl+F due to low visibility on dense or complex pages.

Why it matters

It solves the problem of hard-to-see search highlights by providing a highly visible, flashing effect that improves text discovery without compromising privacy.
