| 2024-11-17 | Sandy | | Works perfectly! It helped me find my way around Bilibili. And I feel I'm learning a lot while reading -- some characters already look familiar. |
| 2024-11-06 | 咕嚕 | | Very good, I hope the addon will support Cantonese tone numbers rather than accents. |

| 2023-01-27 | Firefox user 17752811 | | Extremely useful add-on. Does a great job of telling me what the characters mean and how they are pronounced. Groups characters together where appropriate to give extended meanings. Great work! |
| 2022-07-06 | jayjayel | | I've been using this addon for a long time but never got around to writing a review or thanking the developer. It's very useful, especially for someone that has a hard time reading, but can understand via listening. Thanks for this addon! It's very easy to use and I love it! |
| 2021-05-02 | Igor | | Basically 5-stars, but there is a mistake in Bopomofo (Zhuyin). Characters with pinyin 'mo' get transcribed as 'muo' in Bopomofo. E.g., the dictionary entry for 沒落 is: ㄇㄛˋ ㄌㄨㄛˋ (http://dict.revised.moe.edu.tw/cgi-bin/cbdic/gsweb.cgi?ccd=3qL0lR&o=e0&sec=sec1&op=v&view=0-1), but in Perapera it's ㄇㄨㄛˋ ㄌㄨㄛˋ Please check this out. Thanks! |
