DualView Translator Firefox

DualView Translator

Dual-view translation: keeps the original visible with the translation right below. Google Translate / DeepL ready, with AI summaries on tap.

Features & Capabilities

Tired of translation tools that swallow the original text? DualView Translator keeps it right there — the translation slides in right under the original, so you never lose the context.

Great for language learners, anyone reading foreign articles, or when you just want to double-check what a translator gave you.

■ What you get

  • Dual-view display — the translation appears right under the original, no jumping back and forth
  • 8 translation modes — pick what fits: a single line, the whole page, just one element, with or without AI summary
  • Auto-translation rules — set up your favorite sites once, and they get translated automatically when you open them
  • Translation reset — undo per element with the × button, or wipe everything in one tap
  • Two engines — Google Translate (free, no setup) or DeepL (sharper translations)
  • AI summaries — Claude or Gemini sums up the translated content in 3–5 lines
  • Tabbed popup — translation actions and settings, neatly separated
  • Keyboard shortcuts — Ctrl+Shift+T, you know the drill
  • 11 UI languages — Japanese, English, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Korean, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic
  • Dark / Light theme — follows your OS, no fuss
■ The 8 translation modes
  1. Selection translation — highlight text, the panel pops up
  2. Full-page translation — translate the whole page in dual view
  3. Full-page + AI summary — translation plus a quick overview
  4. Element selection translation — click the element you care about
  5. Element selection + AI summary — same, but with a summary
  6. Right-click translation — select text, right-click, done
  7. Element translation (right-click) — right-click on a block to translate it
  8. Element translation + AI summary — same, with a summary
■ The translation bar

Open a foreign-language page and a small bar pops up at the top. One click to "Translate", one click to "Translate & Summarize". That's it.

■ Auto-translation rules

Got a site you read in another language every day? Register it once with a URL pattern, narrow down to the part you care about with a CSS selector (or just click the element to generate one), and you're set. Works with SPAs, dynamic content, even webmail.

■ Dynamic content

Lazy-loaded sections, infinite scroll — they get picked up and translated as they appear. No need to keep clicking "translate" again.

■ Translation engines

  • Google Translate: free, no API key, ready to roll (default)
  • DeepL: better quality. Free tier covers 500,000 characters/month
■ AI summaries

Hook up Claude (Anthropic) or Gemini (Google) and get a quick 3–5 line summary of the page you just translated. API key needed for these.

■ Privacy, plain and simple

  • Your text only goes to the translation engine you picked
  • API keys live in your browser's local storage, nowhere else
  • No history collection, no tracking, no data goes to us

Is DualView Translator 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.

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

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.

DualView Translator may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
