...the software seems completed!
I really like S3.Google Translator for Firefox and miss it on chromium-based browsers. But QTranslate it's just like S3 even better in some aspects. Very technical and user-friendly application!
Instant translation is that what I loved in S3 and couldn't found in other software, but found it here! And for any translation service, not only Google.
Most of the applications use global hotkeys and a user should make efforts to prevent conflicts, it's not the best idea for such small tools like this, but QTranslate have built-in exception rules, and you can allow it only for selected application. Hotkeys will not work inside of others.
And history feature will save time and traffic if the selected text was already translated before. That's why I even don't know so quick what could be improved here, the software seems completed!
It is perfect, I like read books for practice a new languange and with Qtranslate it is very easy and fast find the meaning of words that I don't know.
I don't usually review a software but this translator is really good! Easy to use and work flawlessly! Keep it up! Good work.
Simple yet fully-featured. Excellent variety of translation options, and easy options to make the translations appear where you wish.
Yes, a good program a lot of interesting settings. Many translation options. But nevertheless it became very boring to me. Gets in the way and looms before eyes. I use Web translators for example:
https://translate.yandex.ru/
https://translate.google.com/
https://www.babla.ru/
I feel more comfortable.
