your home screen.

iPhone & iPad

Open babelbook.net in Safari. Use Share, then Add to Home Screen. If offered, turn on Open as Web App.

Android

Open babelbook.net in Chrome. Use Install below when available, or choose Install app / Add to Home screen from the browser menu.

Sign in from the installed app. Browser and installed-app sessions can differ, but the same account retrieves the same saved Library.

In Chrome or Edge, use the install icon in the address bar or the browser’s Apps / Install menu.

Selected-text browser extension · preview

Highlight text, then use the Babelbook shortcut or right-click menu. A compact translator opens beside your work. Activate the page-selection tool to show a B button near selected text.

Unzip the download. Open chrome://extensions or edge://extensions, enable Developer mode and choose Load unpacked. Select the extracted extension folder. This is a development preview, not a store-reviewed release.

Windows selection shortcut · preview

A Windows companion can open the compact translator from text selected in programs that support Copy. Review the included instructions before running it. It uses a keyboard shortcut, not continuous screen monitoring.

Up to 30 recently visited public language stories can be read offline after loading them online. Images and fonts depend on what was loaded and browser storage availability. Translation, provider audio and your private Library require a connection.

App Store and Google Play releases are still pending real-device testing, signed builds and store review.
