Firefox Translations by Firefox
Review by Khaled Khalil
Rated 2 out of 5
by Khaled Khalil, 3 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 Nicklas Brinkmann, 15 days agoApp don't work: "We found an error loading the translation engine."
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19012334, 16 days agoDoes nothing when I click on the translation icon. At first I thought it was because Dutch is not supported language, but out of curiosity I tried Bulgarian website and it doesn't work either. No error messages, nothing.

- Rated 2 out of 5by A.VanEss, a month agoEvery time to click on Firefox installation I get a page that asks I want to remove it. It never takes me to a spot where I can input a phrase etc that I would like translated. What am I missing? Or better yet what are you missing?
