You should not use the free version if the text contains personal informations. With the paid version texts will be deleted after translation.

I just did a test with Firefox, if you have a .txt file you can open it in the browser and then use the offline translation.  
Could be useful for simple texts but it doesn’t work with other files like .rtf or .doc. Pdfs opened in the browser could be translated but it actually doesn’t work.

Edit: that was a test in firefox for desktop, I don’t think it’s available on mobile.

By the way, with their “try for free” option you’ll first have to pay; it’s really a money-back guarantee. :slight_smile: edit: referring to deepl pro.

The interesting thing with DeepL is their translation accuracy. You get better results with it than Google Translate or Bing Translate, etc.

Yeah, just not much privacy included with this either.

May have been mentioned previously, but has anyone investigated [GitHub - LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate: Free and Open Source Machine Translation API. Self-hosted, offline capable and easy to setup.](https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate?tab=readme-ov-file)

I have never used them and have no connection or opinion on them, it was simply one of the projects that came up when I did a quick internet search.

Of course, but it’s still _something_ to look at when looking at translate services.

Hey! I self-host it, translations are nice but it’s not the same quality of DeepL.  
But yes, it’s a very good option for privacy if you self-host.
