by Firefox user 18055865, 3 years agoGreat extension. Does what it says on the box, and makes it possible for me to correspond with overseas coworkers with instant ease.
I only have two small complaints.
1) When using the "translate this page" feature on a site with editable text, like Confluence, it overwrites the original. That means if you forget to turn it off and hit save (or use something that autosaves) it's possible to destructively overwrite the original, a mistake I made once and never again. I'm not sure what the fix for this would be, without a major architectural overhaul, but it's worth bringing up, if only to save others the same stab of panic.
2) I wish there was an option to translate text immediately upon highlighting, rather than having to click the little button. It's an extra step I don't need, and doing it 300 times a day, it adds up.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Yoksven, 21 hours agoIt stopped working for me a couple of days ago. Every time I try translating anything i get "Error: Service usage limit reached. Please wait a while and try again". I was not doing anything weird with it, I'm not a heavy user, just translating one or two things every couple of days. I have been using it for years with no problems and I really liked this addon, but right now it's unusable for me because of this.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Imota, 9 days agoOh my God, this add-on is amazing! One thing is particularly important to mention here, and that is customization. You can easily customize the pop-up window—its size, height, width, font sizes (very important!), etc. Pure gold. It works seamlessly.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19887784, 2 months agoDoesn't do anything automatically that firefox can't already do. Doesn't work on twitter or other sites with mixed languages. waste of space and time.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Andebyte, 4 months agoThank you for this excellent extension, it works really well. Would it be possible to add a pronunciation (text-to-speech) button to hear the translation? That would make it perfect.
