en I’ve been using this app for about two years now, and honestly I can’t live without it anymore, I guess that also means my Chinese haven’t improved enough haha So the "separating colors" feature for tone-based visualization is a complete game changer, it’s helped me remember pinyin visually thanks to this app, I’ve been complimented on my pronunciation by Chinese way more often, so I can’t thank you enough I have one question though, do you know of any websites where I can use this extension effectively for TTS while practicing? I’ve been using Natural Reader, but it's noticeably slow when loading sentences, so it’s not great for chatting with Chinese speakers , with something like Google Translate’s voice feature the extension doesn’t get applied there, so I can’t see both the tones (colors) and hear the audio simultaneously. Any recommendations for a better website? Thank you for creating such an amazing tool!

en They add the option for pdf file and that is great, but it still doesn't work well on E-book. If they would make it work also on E-books would be great.

en Love the extension. A minor usability request if it's possible: I have looked everywhere in the settings for a way to make the pop up dictionary appear above the current word instead of below and can't find a way. I am unable to use a mouse and keyboard due to a disability, so have to position the cursor over characters by voice command. Once the dictionary shows, it usually blocks the next line of text and i have to move it with another voice command to continue reading. You largely have great keyboard shortcuts, so props for that, makes disabled folks's lives easier :-)

en Bruv, the fact that the dev replied a paragraph to a one word 1 star negative review tells me that this project is active lol. And the man cares about the project. Both beginners to expert benefits from this extension. There are lots of features but the design makes it so that you can use the extension immediately and explore the other settings later to avoid being overwhelmed. Good ting :) and u don't have to respond to negative reviews dev. We know the value, ignore the haters lol Edit: 2 weeks of using it, you can SOMETIMES get lost finding the settings that you want to change, some aren't categorized well ;-; It's a good thing there's a small tip when you hover to a setting so you understand what it does Bias <--> I haven't explored every feature tho so I'm probably not using this extension to its fullest potential, Still 5/5

en UPDATE: Thanks very much for the new feature. Now is really easy to enable/disable the dictionary. In the meanwhile I found out how to reproduce the problem in google translate, if you use it to translate from Chinese to English and after entering Chinese text you want to copy the text to the clipboard with Ctrl+C, the Ctrl key will activate the pop-up dictionary and afterwards the textbox for entering Chinese text is no longer editable and the text can't be changed anymore, the only solution is to reload the page. This is a great extension for Chinese learners. It replaces the Chinese popup dictionary, the simplified to traditional Chinese converter and it also has additional features which make it invaluable. There is still one missing feature I would love to have. Some easy way of disabling and enabling it (some popup dictionaries do this by clicking on their icon), now I have to keep the settings page open to switch it off there. Alternatively some sort of site whitelist for which the extension is not active would be great. I noticed that it does not work well on google translate site. Youtube also will stop playing the video when the popup appears. So I would like to disable the extension in those sites. Other than these tiny things I can only recommend this extension to every Chinese learner

en Thank you so much! This is just what I need. I hope Google doesn't remove it. They are trying to remove the Vietnamese version of this (Han-Viet)
