Extension summary

This extension uses Naver's Papago translation service to translate text through the toolbar popup or directly on web pages.

When highlighting text on web pages, clicking the icon that appears will instantly show you it's translation. If you don't like this functionality, there are settings for restricting when this icon displays while you are web browsing.

Translating entire web pages is also possible, just by clicking "Translate this page" within the context menu.

User reviews

Every translation just loads until an error. Basically doesn't work at all.

There was different version of the same kind of extention developed by someone else, it stopped working and developer deleted it. And now this new comer showed up, but doesn't work at all. It feels like the exact same thing. Don't install it.
