User reviews

Users appreciate the add-on's ability to translate YouTube comments effectively and find it easy to use, praising its reliability and quality. However, multiple users report recent failures in translation functionality, issues with text size being too small, and problems when logged into YouTube accounts. Some also note that disabling auto-translation no longer restores the original text, and the add-on can interfere with Shorts playback.

Pros

Effectively translates YouTube comments helping users understand foreign language comments.
Easy to use with a simple interface, providing a small icon/button to translate comments.
High quality programming and reliable performance before recent issues.
Positive user reception with frequent praise and 5-star ratings.
Helpful for users who want to read comments in other languages without manual copy-pasting.

Cons

Recent functionality issues where translation stops working, possibly due to YouTube changes.
Text size in translations is sometimes too small, making it harder to read.
Button to disable auto translation no longer restores original text as expected.
Does not work when users are logged into their YouTube account.
Interferes with YouTube Shorts playback.

Nice addon! Is it maybe possible to use another translation service? Google's translator is just terrible and sometimes makes no sense :D

It's a nice plugin but it makes the text look small. The text size is small. It used to look big. I think there was a problem after the update.

Extension safety

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.

YouTube™ Comment Translate requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.

Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
