User reviews

открывает перевод в отдельном окне, но лучше, чем ничего. Странно, что гугл до сих пор не додумался сделать как у Яндекса - сразу перевод во всплывающем окне

まあまあですね。でも、AIベースの翻訳の方が良いと思います。最近、友達に勧められたTinaMindを使っているのですが、なかなか良いですね。

Handy and helpful, thank you, would love to adjust the popup frame height and width as default setting
