User reviews
Users appreciate that the add-on translates and speaks YouTube subtitles, enabling accessibility and being free. However, many report functional problems: the interface often does not appear; voiceover playback speed is abnormally fast; natural voice options are unusable; settings fail to save; translation activates unexpectedly; and long videos or video seeking cause failures. These issues significantly impact usability, suggesting the add-on needs improvements for consistent and controllable performance.
Pros
- The extension provides translation and voiceover for YouTube videos' subtitles, which is unique and appreciated by some users.
- It allows users to listen to translated videos, offering accessibility for non-native speakers.
- It is free to use, which some users find valuable despite its shortcomings.
Cons
- The extension often does not work properly, with the interface failing to appear in the YouTube window.
- Voiceover is sometimes played at an excessively fast speed (e.g., x200), with no option to adjust it.
- There are issues with the natural voices in Edge not playing or being silent; only default voices work reliably.
- Settings do not always save correctly, leading to inconsistent behavior, such as translation turning on automatically when not wanted.
- The extension does not handle long videos well and has problems following fast-forward or rewind actions.
