User reviews

LiveTL is a Chrome extension designed to filter and highlight chat messages from volunteer translators in VTuber and Hololive streams, aiding comprehension in multilingual chats. While many users find it helpful for isolating translated messages and enjoy features like read aloud, multiple reviews report confusion about its functionality, expecting automatic translation which it does not provide. Common issues include interface bugs on YouTube, lack of clear usage instructions, and limitations in language support. Despite flaws, it remains popular among fans for enhancing live stream chat experience when volunteer translations exist.
Pros
  • Useful for isolating and viewing messages from community volunteer translators in large VTuber or Hololive streams.
  • Includes a read aloud function helpful for multitasking during streams.
  • Works well on platforms like Twitch and sometimes on Brave browser for YouTube.
  • Has multiple features that users find helpful and amusing, such as chat translation filters.
  • Generally appreciated by users interested in VTuber streams for improved chat experience.
Cons
  • Does not automatically translate chat messages; depends on volunteer translators posting translations in chat, which confuses many users.
  • Lacks clear instructions and documentation, making it difficult to understand how to use effectively.
  • Compatibility issues on YouTube causing inability to post messages or interact with chat, especially when enabling the extension.
  • Occasional bugs such as pop-up rules appearing behind chat, filtering problems, and failure to display translated messages.
  • No support for some languages like Arabic, limiting usefulness for non-supported languages.

I'm not sure what difficulties other users are having but it works fine for me. May be better or worse depending on who you're watching and if they have someone translating in chat at all.
