- Se valoró con 3 de 5por Ashley, el hace 2 mesesUsed to work well but current version is broken and cannot recommend until it has been fixed

- Se valoró con 3 de 5por soupalognon, el hace 9 mesesNice idea and the option to pause between 9am and 6pm is great to be somewhat productive.
However, be aware that the addon has no clue of context, and may use the wrong translation for a word or use funky grammar. I'm using this to support my Japanese learning, but I already have a pretty solid understanding of the language and can detect the (many) instances of unnatural or inappropriate translation.
Keeping that in mind, it's a neat way to expand your vocabulary in a way that's relevant to you.
Probably best for languages close to the one you already speak.Respuesta del desarrollador
publicado el hace 9 mesesHey there! Thanks so much for your feedback. We have a lot of new upgrades coming to our natural language processing and machine learning technology that we're beyond eager for our users to experience. As you've noticed, languages are extremely complex and we're excited to have the opportunity to tackle this head on and deliver an elegant solution to you. In the meantime, you can use our error reporting feature by clicking on the flag icon in the hover state whenever you find an incorrect translation, this will help us improve the overall accuracy of our learning system. Keep me posted if you have any other feedback at all. :)
Obrigada,

- Se valoró con 3 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 15768170, el hace un añoThe idea is great, but the extension itself works very sluggishly. Enabling the settings panel is already a problem, because the panel doesn't always display or it shows up after many seconds. This is probably the first extension I've been using on Firefox which is so sluggish.

Co-Founder and CEO, Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 14599743, el hace un añoAdd-on de pago. Pero la idea es buenísima. Dios sabrá que pasa en los niveles más avanzados porque en su versión gratuita es imposible avanzar.

Sinceramente,
Equipo Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por emascandam, el hace un añoWhile the idea is great, and the extension is visually appealing, most of the features that will help people actually learn the language are not available for free. Furthermore, some heavy webpages become sluggish and unusable when they first load, and the extension uses flags to represent languages with no way to use alternative method such as ISO codes (this is bad because it reinforces the idea that a language 'belongs' to a country and a country has one national/native language, which endangers minority languages and plays a negative role in the loss of languages, among other reasons it is proscribed). Furthermore, the transliteration can be really inconsistent and sometimes even inaccurate. A single robust transliteration system should be used for all words in a language to avoid confusion.

Co-Founder and CEO, Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 14476900, el hace un añoI love the idea, but for me it slows down my browser so much that it is unusable, freezing my tab even on the lowest word amount setting. Will definitely come back and see if it works any better in the future
I actually came back to this and just stopped it running on the more taxing sites. Unfortunately these are the sites I use most, like twitch or any other chat room. But I can make some use of Toucan so i'll change my original 1 star rating to 3, hoping it runs more efficiently or has options to make it do so in the futureRespuesta del desarrollador
publicado el hace un añoThanks so much for this updated feedback! Sincerely appreciate it. A change is definitely coming very soon. We’re actively working on improving performance and appreciate the details that you’ve provided for us. Stay tuned for updates. I’m definitely all ears if you have any other feedback at all.

Co-Founder and CEO, Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por Dim, el hace un añoAmazing concept but inadequate implementation. Instantly slows down certain pages (for example the interface of DiskStation Manager) to the point of becoming unusable. Firefox also notices this and asks me if I want to stop this extension from running. This, however, doesn't solve the issue. The only solution is to manually disable Toucan before visiting the problematic page. Can't add the page to the blocked sites because it doesn't allow adding IP addresses instead of domains.

Co-Founder and CEO, Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por xerus, el hace un añoGood idea, but
1) I could not feel significant progress so far (will report back in a few months)
2) as regularly mentioned, performance issue, especially apparent on sites like goodreadsRespuesta del desarrollador

Co-Founder and CEO, Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 15029661, el hace 2 añosToucan is an excellent concept. Unfortunately, the implementation suffers from severe performance issues, typically on websites with a large amount of content and particularly so when large amounts of content are updated by a script (you can see this very well on api.rubyonrails.org when searching).

Co-Founder and CEO, Toucan - Se valoró con 3 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 16621721, el hace 2 añosi saw this extension via Enhancer for Youtube sponsor but i dislike that the partner link goes to your site rather than the extention itself in addon.mozilla so i didn't use that link
it would also be better if you are recommended by Mozilla. its much easier to trust them. for now lets just see how good is this
Edit: some words dont have romanji words on them sadlyRespuesta del desarrollador
