User reviews
Users appreciate the basic functionality of translating text through the right-click menu. However, many are frustrated that the extension opens a new tab rather than translating inline or via popup, reducing efficiency. It reportedly stopped working on popular sites such as Facebook and Messenger, and users dislike having to manually invoke translation. Some report crashes when filling forms and generally find the user experience less seamless than desired. The main complaints center on inefficiency and site compatibility issues.
Pros
- The extension is generally functional for translating selected text via right click.
- Some users find it useful as a quick translation tool.
- It integrates translation into the browser context menu, which can be convenient.
Cons
- The extension often opens a new tab for translation instead of translating inline or via a popup, which many users find inefficient.
- It has stopped working on some sites like Facebook and Messenger.
- Translation does not happen automatically on some sites, requiring manual user interaction, which frustrates users.
- The extension sometimes crashes pages when filling forms.
- Overall, the UI/UX is not progressive or seamless compared to alternatives, lacking inline or popup translation features.

A extensão deixou de funcionar no Facebook e no Messenger que são os que usava frequentemente com um click no botão direito e abria o menu e bastava mandar traduzir e traduzia no proprio texto selecionado agora nos faz ter que ir ao Google tradutor esta terrível

Opening a new tab? What is so progressive with that and not to do so manually as usally? ToolTip or Pop-up in foreground would be more efficient for me. Often I need only one or two words or maybe a phrase to translate that I don't know. More like the add-on from dict.cc for mozilla-based applications would be more useful. In that state not progressive for me, but basically functional.
