User reviews

Users appreciate the Yandex Translation add-on for its accuracy, Russian language adaptability, and good performance on Linux and Firefox-based browsers. It is favored over other translators and works well even on certain difficult sites. However, multiple users mention the lack of a quick translation icon upon text selection, the inconvenience of opening translations in separate windows rather than tabs, absence of full page translation options, and issues with window size retention and text formatting. Overall, it offers a solid translation tool with room for interface and usability improvements.
Pros
  • Provides more accurate and adaptive Russian translation compared to Google Translate.
  • Works well on Linux systems and similar Firefox-based browsers.
  • Easy to use and offers a good translation experience similar to the built-in Yandex browser function.
  • Supports translation on sites where integrated translators might not work.
  • Many users find it better than other translators and appreciate its functionality.
Cons
  • Lacks a popup icon or quick menu when text is selected, making translation slower and less convenient.
  • Translation opens in a new window instead of a new tab, which users find less ideal.
  • No feature to translate entire pages directly; users must open a new tab for full page translations.
  • Translation window size is not remembered, requiring users to adjust it every time.
  • Formatting is not preserved during translation, causing inconvenience for some users.
Recent reviews
После установки расширения вообще ничего не происходит. Не появляется никаких элементов управления. Всё выглядит так, будто переводчика попросту нет в браузере.
