User Reviews

Users appreciate the add-on's quality translations, especially into English, and its ability to translate selected text. However, many report intrusive nagging to install the DeepL desktop app, frequent translation failures or blocking, unnecessary permission requests, and unreliable select-to-translate functionality. Interface distractions such as overly prominent donation buttons also detract from usability.

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
