Hi, I think it should support any translator (eg by selecting text, the Google Translate - but also any other); actually it does not detect them and does not translate anything. Practically today every app can interface with the Google Translator service (selecting text, the Translate option appears in the context menu), and I do not think it is so difficult to implement it

I had tried those, for example To Google Translator, but they didn’t work on FF mobile (for the desktop version maybe they are good)

What is wrong with page translator? I use it directly from the link [https://github.com/jeremiahlee/page-translator/releases/download/v1.0.3/page\_translator-1.0.3-an.fx.xpi](https://github.com/jeremiahlee/page-translator/releases/download/v1.0.3/page_translator-1.0.3-an.fx.xpi)
