User Reviews
Pros
- Provides translation results in a popup window near selected text, enhancing user experience compared to opening a new tab.
- User-configurable options available, allowing customization.
- Translates entire web pages directly without navigating away.
- Includes pronunciation feature for translated text.
- Simple and functional alternative to other Google Translate extensions.
Cons
- Popup window does not behave like an instant popover; requires clicking an icon instead of automatically showing translation on text selection.
- Does not save popup window size or adapt to translated text size, causing usability issues.
- Lacks option to save source language preference, leading to extra clicks.
- Uses Google sign-in session from non-Private windows when used in Private mode, risking privacy.
- The popup icon can interfere with website elements on some sites, e.g., Duolingo, causing accidental clicks.

Is Popup View for Google™ Translate Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Popup View for Google™ Translate requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
