A free, open-source Windows and macOS app for translating selected text, screen regions, and subtitle files from English to Vietnamese.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-16 issue.

For: English–Vietnamese readers on Windows or macOS
Worth noticing: Its screen-translation mode can keep translated text over changing screen content; the speech-caption route is limited to English.

Field notes

The selection popup can be opened by clicking its nearby icon or using a keyboard shortcut; the page says the original selection and clipboard are preserved. For text that cannot be selected, users can draw a screen region for OCR, while subtitle files can be dropped into a dedicated tab. The macOS clipboard panel is marked experimental, and the audio-caption path is limited to English on Windows 11 22H2 or later.
