User Reviews

Finally, the perfect tool I've been searching for! If you're looking for a quick and clean way to handle selected text, this is it. What it does: Select any text — and the popup appears right next to your selection. Works with any selection method: drag with mouse, double-click a word, or triple-click a paragraph. It's rare to see such attention to different workflows. One-click copy — exactly what I needed. No extra menus, no right-click hassle. Easily switch search and translate engines from the settings. Want Yandex instead of Google? It's already in the list — no need to manually dig for URLs or mess with custom search strings. Just select and go. Citation made simple: when copying, it automatically adds brackets and formats the text. No more switching keyboard layouts just to get a proper quote. For those working with AI tools: it adds an extra paragraph break when needed — one click and your text is ready to paste into ChatGPT, DeepSeek, or Giga.chat and any other service. Character count — the popup automatically shows how many words and characters you've selected. Small detail, incredibly handy. Deep customization — the settings are surprisingly rich and varied. You can tweak almost everything: appearance, behavior, which icons appear, and how they work. For a perfectionist (and yes, for a nitpicker like me 😄), this is pure satisfaction. You can make it behave exactly the way you want. Everything works right out of the box, no complicated setup, and it doesn't slow down your browser. After five days of testing various browsers and extensions, this one is a breath of fresh air. Big thanks to the developer — you've created something genuinely useful! 👏 If you're tired of copying via right-click or hunting for search options, just install this. You won't regret it.

Не понравилось то что перевод текст открывается в новой вкладке. Мне удобнее во всплывающем окошке. UPD разобрался, при наведение курсором на кнопку появляется перевод
