Latest reviews
- (2024-10-03) Channel: 🟠3.10.24: Doesn't work on YouTube anymore? Hovering mouse over any word, but it doesn't shows the translation. Thanks. UPDATE, In Opera, in search page (google), doesn't translate, not even show the frame when i click on icon up right the browser. You know why? Ξαφνικά δεν κάνει καμία μετάφραση. Γιατί;
- (2024-08-27) It was the best translator for youtube subtitles. It is not working anymore! Please fix and give it back to us!
- (2023-12-02) It is very handy extension, but sometimes it doesn't work for some reason. So it is a bit unreliable, otherwise it works as intended.
- (2023-10-19) John Renfro: This is the best translator on the web because you can just highlight a word or a phrase or the entire paragraph and it translates correctly. Press CTRL and in Chrome browser, it speaks the pronunciation. It does need a written pronunciation guide. For this reason 10Ten reader is better for Asian languages.
- (2023-10-15) behrouz 40: don't work today
- (2023-10-03) M K: 翻譯功能陽春就算了 也不好操作 更重要的是 幾乎都是"oops沒有翻譯"
- (2023-09-29) roman volkov (vlkvr): Amazing!
- (2023-09-20) Greg L: One of the best translators! Easy to use and very functional. Highly recommend this extension for Chrome!!!!!
- (2023-09-07) Mohammed bayat: Chrome installed on Windows 8 is cracked, it doesn't work at all! Why ?
- (2023-08-30) David Mencías: Justo lo que necesitaba. Puntero sobre la palabra y traducción automática. Gracias
- (2023-08-15) Watcharaphorn Keawpricha: Is reverse translation working? I already set it up but didn't work BTW.
- (2023-07-24) A learner: أروع و أحمل إضافة ترجمة
- (2023-07-23) Y Nguyen: Speech sound is distorted on macos. I use the macos v14 with brave browser.
- (2023-06-26) New Super: 簡單好用
- (2023-06-07) Αντρέας ΦΩΤΙΟΣ: Σε μερικές σελίδες ή είδος κειμένου λειτουργεί πολύ καλά, άλλοτε όχι, έστω κι αν ανανεώσεις τη σελίδα. Αυτό δημιουργεί ένα είδος "ελλειματικής" αξιοπιστίας παρόλο που ως επέκταση είναι τρομερά βοηθητική: ενώ διαβάζεις μια δύσκολη λέξη /πρόταση, αφήνονεις το ποντίκι επάνω (σχετική ρύθμιση) κι αυτόματα έχεις τη μτφ.
- (2023-05-17) bernie: Two feature requests I would like to have the program speak the language that I'm trying to translate that way I can learn how to properly say in a second feature I would like is if you can also display how it's pronounced so for example if I want to translate the word cheese to the word cheese in Spanish which is queso I would like a small insert on how an English speaker would pronounce it would be very helpful I'm trying to use it to learn another language
- (2023-04-23) Andrey Perevitsky: I'd like this extension, but in my browser (Google Chrome 111.0.5563.146) the translation takes a little much time to appear a pop-up box (~1.5 seconds), but on my older device it was taking a really so little time (< 1 second). (I'am using the alt key to translate a text selected.) And, not everywhere TransOver can do its work, e.g. on translate.google.com or here, when I'am writing this review :D. Nevertheless, I'm glad to use TransOver. Thanks you!
- (2023-03-13) Sophia Chan: Nice!
- (2023-03-04) Alexandr Stepanov: Шикарная вещь, перевод с английского на русский (другими не пользуюсь) - максимально точные. Большая просьба сделать возможность, чтобы можно было переводить на вкладке с PDF, хотя бы при выделении текста. Сейчас совсем не работает расширение в PDF.
- (2023-03-04) Mato Anastas: KA QENE SHTESE E MIRE PO TANI SIKUR DO QENIN MBRAPA TA KUJTOJE

- (2022-11-19) Павел Науменков: Не работает. Пробовал на разных сайтах, изменял параметры в настройках и вообще ничего не высвечивается, никакого перевода, даже нет никаких рамок, чтобы текст можно было туда написать или скопировать для перевода. Пробовал нажимать на сам знак расширения, никакого результата. Может быть проблема в браузере, но я в этом не уверен.
- (2022-11-15) Alexandre Ferreira: Entendi nada como funciona!
- (2022-11-13) Ultra Forklift Spare: The best among others by now! Really like it.
- (2022-11-11) Игорь Рожков: Не заработал в Опере. В хроме все ок

- (2022-10-31) Спасибо за плагин. Не хватает автоподстройки ширины попапа для длинных текстов. По умолчанию занимает всю ширину окна браузера, а хотелось бы сделать отображение более компактным.
- (2022-10-28) Night Watch: and how does it work?
- (2022-10-27) A W: I've found that it doesn't work on very many website, but when it does work, it works great.
- (2022-10-20) Салават Салахутдинов: Расширение ломает сайты (в частности: на ютубе и на многих других сайтах дублируется контент https://github.com/artemave/translate_onhover/issues/56), ломаются скрипты и ошибки в консоли
- (2022-10-14) Mohammed Imran: Very useful, Thanks.

- (2022-09-11) PIN: 跟同类产品比,非常流畅,UI简约精美字体适中
- (2022-03-18) Sungur Tigin: how to use
- (2022-03-11) Mohamed Samir: الاضافة الوحيدة التي تترجم من الانجليزية الي العربية دون ظهور مشكلة في ترتيب الجمل خاصة عند وجود اقواس او علامات تنصيص بالاسماء او المصطلحات حبث ان ترجمة جوجل يظهر بها هذه المشكلة عند عرض الترجمة فيكون ترتيب الجمل مختلف مما يجعل فهم العبارات اكثر صعوبة
- (2022-03-09) Johnathan Kong: Fantastic app for translation and learning.
- (2022-02-26) Hakan Özlen: Very good extension! Thanks. Could you make the translation frame width smaller when we translate long sentences?
- (2022-02-18) Wild Hyena: really slow and useless
- (2022-02-16) milad mfd: This is a very good tool. But it will be better if more features can place in the right click, for example: the ability to copy text from result box and the ability to enlarge the result size
- (2022-02-03) Vincent T: Good, easy to use 1) can you add a function to turn on/off the pop up translate function. thank you
- (2022-02-03) Yateendra Sahu: it WAS great extension
- (2022-02-02) Catofood: Работает upd Снова не работает
