Simple Translate

Quickly translate selected or typed text on web pages. Supports Google Translate and DeepL API.

Simple Translate is a user-friendly Chrome extension that enables instant translation of selected or typed text on any web page. When you highlight text, a translation button appears, providing immediate translations without disrupting your browsing experience. The extension offers customizable options such as hiding the translation button when it’s unnecessary, ensuring a clean interface.

In its toolbar popup, Simple Translate performs real-time translation of your input, with an option to automatically switch target languages based on your input language—for example, translating English to Japanese and vice versa. Additionally, the extension seamlessly integrates with your context menu, allowing you to translate entire pages, selected text, or links with just a click. Supporting both Google Translate and DeepL APIs, it delivers accurate and reliable translations. Available for Chrome and Firefox browsers, Simple Translate is a powerful tool to enhance your multilingual web interactions.

Recent reviews

No sé por qué traduce mal. Es el mejor en cuanto a practicidad ya que seleccionas un texto y sin más acción, aparece la ventana con la traducción. Pero vean este ejemplo. > "How scam factories rope in honest workers." Traducción: > "Cómo estafa las fábricas de la cuerda en los trabajadores honestos." y así de mal en general. Supuestamente lo traduce con google. Pero si vas al traductor de google, traduce así. > "Cómo las fábricas fraudulentas atraen a trabajadores honestos."
