Review by Khaled Khalil
Rated 2 out of 5
by Khaled Khalil, 4 years agoEdit after 2 years of my initial review: still no support for many major languages, after 5 years of development it support only some European languages + Persian (in development). The web is more diverse than that, and Firefox has users all across the globe who use more languages.
For instance Mandarin Chinese is spoken by 1.35 billion, Arabic 710 millions (native+second) and Hindi 610 millions (native+second). Yet these three major languages don't even get any interest from Bergamot team, no promises, nothing at all.
I am sad I'm taking away two stars from my initial review, but I still have hope the situation will change, hopefully in this decade.

I have been waiting project Bergamot since its first news in 2019, and I am excited that it began to fruit in this extension.
I have just tried it with a few pages, and the translation looks very natural, that's a great success.
However, as many has pointed, the languages supported for the moment are very limited. I hope more languages are going to get supported later.

- Rated 1 out of 5by aha, 2 months agoHier funktioniert überhaupt nichts. Wie kann so ein Add-on von Firefox überhaupt veröffentlicht werden. Warum werden die 1-Sterne-Bewertungen ignoriert? Es ist doch offensichtlich, dass hier vieles im Argen liegt und bearbeitet werden muss.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Anymorf, 3 months agoНе работает, совсем. ни автоматически ни с выбором текста. не появляется ни выбора настроек ни выбраного текста для перевода, ни кнопки перевести. Абсолютно бесполезное дополнение.
и не стоит грешить на недоступность серверов или плохую связь - оно должно перводить автономно, качало словари для выбраных языков.
страницы загружаются, а дополнение - не загружается или сбоит на каком то из этапов включения \ распознания текста - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17130455, 4 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by I'm a Numbers Guy, 4 months agoThe extension works unreliably and there is no indication as to what went wrong. You can't click on the extension to force translate as in google translate.
This is one feature for which I switched to chrome long time ago and this is still an issue with Firefox. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19748576, 6 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Daia, 6 months agoNothing happens when you press it on address bar. It's very slow on the phone and not convenient at all, because you need to choose the language every single time.
