User reviews

Great tool, but one major pain point

The tool works really well for looking up words online. The one thing that really keeps it from being amazing is that for every new tab or refresh you have to constantly re-enable it.

Fantastic

Works very well

Great extension overall

This extension is so good I have it on all of my devices.
That being said when I use it with the Safari browser on my Ipad I have to reactivate it everytime I want to use it by taping the small puzzle piece in the search bar, even when opening a new tab. This despite being always activated in the "manage extensions" browser settings.

Used to work

The latest update has made the puck(circle) permanently on “left handed” mode without it adjusting itself to be usable based on screen location nor is it be able to switch modes(double tap).

Not only that, it’s been unable to update the dictionaries, completely removing my ability to use the tabs since mid-June.

If these two issues can be resolved, it’s an easy five star tool which simplifies the process of finding the meaning of each character.

Indispensable

Best tool for Japanese lookups on mobile. I’m able to read a LOT more and practice on the go thanks to this.
