VISUAL LEXICON — Chrome Extension
**Short description**
Highlight or double-click any word to see images, smart translations, audio, a 3D Thesaurus, and quick vocab games—privacy-first.
**Overview**
Visual Lexicon turns any web page into a visual dictionary. Double-click or highlight a word (or short phrase) to open a tiny, on-page popup—no page reloads, no new tabs.
**What you get**
* **Instant visuals:** See relevant images that make meanings stick.
* **Smart translations:** Context-aware translations for multiple languages.
* **Optional audio:** Hear the word pronounced clearly.
* **Language switcher:** Toggle languages or jump to the full image gallery.
* **Saved Words:** When signed in, every lookup is saved to **My Account → All Saved Words** and synced across devices.
**What’s new**
* **3D Thesaurus (New):** Explore synonyms, antonyms, and related terms in an interactive 3D view—great for nuance and discovery.
* **Games (New):** Bite-size vocab challenges (e.g., *Word Boss — Color Pop*) you can launch right from the popup to reinforce learning while you browse.
**Privacy-first by design**
* Processes **only** the text you select—**never** the full page.
* Requests are made without sending the page URL, so the site you’re on isn’t revealed.
* Stores simple preferences locally (language, on/off, per-site allow/deny).
* If you sign in, we store only the queried term plus minimal sync metadata.
* **No ads. No third-party trackers. No remote code execution.**
* Network requests download content payloads only (images/definitions/audio).
**Permissions (scoped to the core feature)**
* **Host permissions:** Detect selections and render the popup on the page you’re viewing.
* **Tabs:** Read the active tab’s origin and broadcast enable/disable across your open tabs (not used for history or other pages).
* **Storage:** Lightweight settings and, if signed in, an auth token for Saved Words sync.
* **ContextMenus:** Right-click to look up a selection or toggle on this site.
**You stay in control**
* Toolbar switch + per-site controls. Disable any time.
* By installing, you acknowledge that data is used only to provide and improve the core functionality. We comply with Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies and applicable privacy laws.
