Free Microsoft Translator: You can now use the Microsoft Translator engine completely free without an Azure API key, leveraging the same built-in endpoint as Microsoft Edge. If you prefer your paid Azure subscription, you can still paste your key to use your dedicated endpoint as before.

Smart Language Skipping: The translation engine now intelligently skips short English snippets on pages you've already chosen to ignore, such as Google Search AI Overviews. Additionally, the PDF viewer will now pre-detect languages per paragraph, preventing wasted API calls on text that already matches your target language.

Broader Content Translation: Web components and content tucked inside open Shadow DOMs, such as custom CMS embeds and data visualizations, are now fully detected and translated alongside the rest of the page.

Improved PDF Viewer: The PDF viewer's error screens have been completely redesigned into localized, user-friendly status pages. Please note that on Firefox, PDF translation is now focused exclusively on online web PDFs, as local file:// PDFs will remain in Firefox's built-in viewer due to platform limitations.

Searchable Model Pickers: The OpenAI and Gemini model dropdowns now permanently display a search box to help you find specific model variants faster. The Cleartext engine's model preference dropdown has also been upgraded to a styled picker that elegantly highlights Max-only models.

Seamless Auto-Translate & Fixes: Auto-translate preferences now correctly match websites regardless of whether the www. prefix is present, and these site lists can now be exported or imported. Furthermore, a text-rendering bug was fixed to ensure Google Translate output no longer displays raw HTML entities like apostrophes or quotes.

Smart Translation Toggle: The page translation shortcut now acts as a two-way toggle, allowing you to easily switch back and forth between the translated version and the original text. The default shortcut has also moved to Alt+A (⌥A on macOS) to prevent system conflicts and ensure reliable binding.

Streamlined Settings: All preference changes and API key edits are now saved automatically in the background within a third of a second. Additionally, the translation engines are now grouped into Recommended, Translation Services, and AI Translators for much easier navigation.

Carbon Color Palette: The interface has shifted to a neutral-gray theme that removes any yellow undertones. Text contrast has been slightly softened to provide a more comfortable and less tiring reading experience during long sessions.

Enhanced PDF Support on Firefox: Full PDF translation is now supported on Firefox for both online links and local file:// documents. The extension now intercepts these documents early to open them seamlessly within the native cleartext viewer.

Unified Custom AI Engine: The custom engine setup is now consolidated into a single profile that automatically detects OpenAI and Anthropic protocols. It smartly identifies and routes individual models on mixed gateways, while updating your settings status dynamically.

Polished Interface Details: The custom model selector now leads with a searchable dropdown menu to reduce clutter and make model selection effortless. Minor visual bugs, such as height mismatches and background page-bouncing on macOS, have also been fixed.
