Description from store
This Chrome extension works in concert with Japanese IO (https://www.japanese.io) and brings easy access to dictionary lookups, readings, kanji and example sentences to help you read Japanese web pages.
Notice that this extension requires a free Japanese IO account, which can be created from the extension after it has been installed. Paid feature upgrades are available.
Word lookups are stored in your profile and you can review and study this vocabulary on the Japanese IO website.

- I like how the hiragana is displayed on the texts! This extension is small and nice.
- Omar Garcia
- Amazing extension; having the account has improved my Japanese. I also tried premium before. I wish I could create flash study cards from the words I search, especially the words I search for the most. Not sure if that feature has been added to premium, but if it has, I will go back to premium.
- maxmardig
- I have used this extension for 5 years, with 1 year of premium service. Both versions are extremely useful. Premium is especially good when you are starting to study Japanese. I wish there were a desktop version (not browser) or a Safari version.
- Crystal Identity
- I just tried installing this, but when I left-click on the icon, it just takes me to a new tab and tries to make me sign up for an account?? What kind of "extension" is this!! For _that_ reason, I AM OUT.

- This is the best app in town that I have found, quicker simple highlighting words for furigana on websites, click and show the actual JLPT level of the word and frequency (not available on Yomichan that I can see), and word-tracking storage across extension to main IO website, analyzer, etc. In this way I believe it is better and simpler than Lingq as well, and pretty much everything else that I have seen to date.

- 超級完美的功能，作為中文使用者。有多時候閱讀都是能理解文意，但不曉得日文發音。 有了這個之後變得很好學習。 如果之後詞語解釋多了其他語言就更棒了

- Garbage app runs in the background somehow (background app which remains after closing Chrome). Can't trust it. Regular Japanese is mistakenly interpreted as author name.

- Great. But it would be better if it includes the audio to play each time one clicks on a word.

- How awesome is this extension! It's really helped me to improve my reading skills, by giving me control over how much help I need when I get stuck on a word I don't know. For a little help, hovering over a kanji reveals the hiragana. For more help, clicking the kanji reveals the translation. I also like how you can even save kanji to study again later with the click of a star button. Amazing job!

- Shelly Teishev
- Absolutely great - a must for Japanese learners out there! I've tried a lot of tools, but both this extension and the website have been extremely helpful. I love how the extension "collects" all the words you clicked on and that you can eventually import them to Anki. Keep up the wonderful work!

- In the update number 0.9.0 that was released today 15-11-2019 I noticed that the problem of the IO button that covers the highlighted word was solved, You also solved the problem of auto highliting of the furigana when highliting a word with a kanji and kana letters, In fact, this problem caused me a huge burden because I copy and paste texts dozens of times a day. Thanks a lot for this excellent update !.

- This app has been so useful for me. Absolutely LOVE it. It's a combination of a handy dictionary and cloud vocabulary notebook. It's efficient, accurate and smart. LOVE IT.

- Hey guys! The extension has been great so far. However, there's a small problem. I'm actually using to cheat l*ingq and whenever I turn a new page, the "ON" button turns gray and the extension wouldn't work! I have to turn the extension off then on again for it to function. Hope you guys can look into this and fix it if it turns out to be a problem. Thanks for the great extension!
