Page Translator for Firefox Android

[Anonymous]

I wonder how Page Translator is missing on Firefox Android. Please Introduce a Page Translator.

(Here's a screenshot of auto detected page Translator from the Brave Browser.)

Quick update...

We're aiming to deliver this in 125.

@Jondo you mean stable? I'm a nightly user and nightly is already on 125.

[Jon]

@Jeppie yes the stable version

[Jeppie]

  @Jon cool but when does it come to nightly? So far i know i can only use translation with about:config.

You can enable firefox-translations in secret settings.

@JonI'm so excited that this feature is in development. I hope a small pop-up window with a translation offer will be made, which does not interfere with viewing the site page. It has not been possible to find such a function yet. Only a pop-up window is available, which takes up half the screen, which is not very convenient.

webpage translation on mobile (android)

I crucially miss the ability to translate a webpage from a foreign language in real-time.

for it to be effective it must convert all the elements (menus, buttons etc), similar to the Google translate integration on Google Chrome. I've recently been able to do that on Firefox desktop. it worked quite well so it might be a new feature? but it's far more useful on mobile, where it's currently unavailable.

I live in a foreign country and I often have to tackle entire websites and webapps that I cannot read or understand. this is the only reason I haven't switched from Chrome to Firefox full time on mobile. I don't have a choice not to use these websites and I wish Firefox, as my browser, would breach this language gap for me.

@yoti thanks for the request! There is a similar request for a translations feature for Android, so we merged your post into that main thread ... and we're also happy to report that it's currently in development. Stay tuned here for more updates 😀
