Welcome the brand-new Safari extension. Browse the web without noticing that some pages may be in a foreign language. Mate will translate them seamlessly before you even see the contents. It works perfectly with 40+ languages. We also revamped the on-page translation tooltip. Now you can change languages right from there. Connect with us on Twitter: @MateTranslate

Are you as excited about Apple Silicon Macs as we are? Mate now natively runs on brand new M1 processors. How about Big Sur? A Big Yes. We neatly optimized Mate for the latest macOS and redesigned the app icon from scratch to reflect its Big Sur'ness. We also smoothened Mate's menu bar and Safari toolbar icons.

We neatly optimized Mate for the latest macOS and redesigned the app icon from scratch to reflect its Big Sur'ness. We also smoothened Mate's menu bar and Safari toolbar icons. We also squashed a few pesky bugs: Mate could randomly open when you woke up your Mac from sleep or turned it on. Some entries in Phrasebook could be improperly truncated.

Mate goes Netflix: Can you learn languages while binge-watching favourite Netflix shows? Now you can. We've made a revolutionary integration. Mate pairs with Netflix player in Safari and lets you look up translations in a very unobtrusive way – by clicking on words or selecting sentences. This update is all about the Safari extension, so we further improved and fixed some other things, too: * Toolbar button doesn't do nothing anymore. It translates text that you selected on the page. * Clicking on flags in the translation tooltip now invokes the language picker. Tweet @MateTranslate which show you're going to learn a language with. We're curious!

We deployed an additional server in Hong Kong, so our users in mainland China can experience the best speed possible.

- Fixes for the Chinese Great Firewall. Mate could stop working for some of our Chinese users. Now it should be great again. - Translation tooltip on pages is slightly smaller now, so it doesn't obstruct too much of actual content. - If on-page translation in Safari is loading for too long, you can now dismiss it, so it's not cluttering the page forever. Click elsewhere or press Esc to dismiss. - On-page translation tooltip supports swapping now. - We localized the app to new languages: Swedish, Turkish, Arabic, Thai, Vietnamese, Dutch, Danish, Polish, Romanian, Italian, Indonesian. - Previously, if you started the speak out for a long text and minimized the app, it'd keep talking, now it won't. - Speak out button for the original text was sliding down and up every time you translated something causing misclicks if you wanted to clear the input field. We made that panel more stable – it won't jump around anymore. - Issue with the wrong Mate's window positioning on multiple displays was fixed. Previously, Mate could pop up on the wrong monitor. Now it won't. - Mate's window could pop up in the wrong place if hidden with Bartender. Now two apps are compatible. - Safari extension wasn't localized (more precisely, localizations weren't loading properly). Now they load properly. - No Google and Facebook sign-in methods. We removed them for privacy and maintenance reasons.
