Recent reviews
The TransOver Chrome extension, although helpful for quick translations, has some notable limitations. One key issue is its inability to translate text within PDF documents when hovering the mouse over them. This restricts its functionality, particularly for users who often work with PDFs, as they are unable to access translations seamlessly in these types.
