User Reviews

Users appreciate Linguee it! for enabling quick translations without leaving the current webpage and its usefulness for language learning. However, many report UI problems like small windows and overlapping elements, slow or infinite loading, especially in reading or PDF modes, and lack of convenient features such as right-click menu integration, persistent language settings, and bookmarking. Overall, it is a helpful tool but requires significant improvements for better usability and performance.
Pros
  • Facilitates quick word translation without switching tabs, saving time.
  • Integrates translation directly on the current webpage, maintaining reading flow.
  • Supports multiple languages and is useful for language learning.
  • Simple and easy to use interface.
  • Good alternative to more complex translation tools.
Cons
  • UI issues including small, non-resizable windows and overlapping layers that affect usability.
  • Slow loading times and occasional infinite loading loops, especially in reading mode or PDF view.
  • Lack of persistent language settings requiring re-selection each time.
  • No direct access via right-click context menu or convenient pop-up next to selected text.
  • No bookmarking or history features for studied words, limiting study workflow.

A extensão é boa, mas ainda falta funcionar no modo de leitura e também seria bom poder acessá-la diretamente via menu ao clicar-se com o botão direito do mouse.

I do not think it very practical having to select a word and then move the mouse cursor up to the addon icon, just to open a translation pop up. I think it would be more desirable to be able to select a word and have a pop up appear right next to it. The plugin is otherwise OK.

Is Linguee it! 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.

Linguee it! does not require any sensitive permissions.
