User Reviews

Dictionary Plus is praised for its reliable, fast, and clean dictionary features, effectively succeeding the discontinued Dictionary Anywhere add-on. Users appreciate detailed information like phonetics and word saving. However, multiple reviews highlight the lack of customization for popup triggers, limited multi-language support, and occasional errors in the options section. Overall, it is favored as a solid dictionary solution with room for enhancements in feature customization and multilingual capabilities.

Fast, clean, and straightforward user experience.
Provides detailed information including phonetics and allows saving words.
Serves as a successful successor to the discontinued Dictionary Anywhere add-on.
Recommended by users especially after other dictionary add-ons stopped working.

Cons

Lacks options to customize activation methods, such as disabling double-click for popup and allowing only right-click.
Does not support multi-language definitions or simultaneous display of translations in multiple languages.
Error in options section: 'Options Section Not Found' reported by users.
Limited in handling foreign words or translations beyond English definitions.
Missing advanced features like popup window positioning and storing translation pairs.

I had FF in strict mode, and it didn't work. When I switched to normal mode it worked perfectly. Not a huge fan of that, but there's probably no way around it. Thank you to the developer!

Is Dictionary Plus 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.

Dictionary Plus requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
Critical ******* ****** ** *** ********* ******** *********** *********
High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Dictionary Plus has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
