The app looks very nice and functional. I'm wondering if an english version is in development.

Even a simple google translate version would be godsend!

3ks comments~ Multilingual version will be implemented released in the future, e.g. 1.1.3 or 1.1.4

@Kenshin

I hope that SimpRead will be released in English soon. I had a peep at version 1.1.3 and it looks quite interesting and customizable but as I do not speak Chinese my use of the extension was rather limited. However the Markdown files it produced were good. It seems that SimpRead was removed from Firefox, why? Is there any time line for the translation of the extension in English?

Hey guys, It is a very functional and simple extension, you are awesome! An English version would be very welcome for non-Chinese speakers, hoping you release it soon.

@Kenshin I've been a big fan of reader mode of Safari and your simpread comes the closest out of all the Chrome extensions out there for now. I think you'd get a lot of traction internationally if you provide an option to choose the English version at installation. Thank you & great work!

P.S. In the meantime, for us that don't know Chinese, use google translate! It works, albeit inconveniently.

Hello! I've recently installed SimpRead, looks like it's a remarkable tool based on my recent experience. Unfortunately, I don't understand Chinese, so I can't get the best experience from it. My native language is Brazilian Portuguese, English is my second one. I can volunteer to help translate both languages if my help is welcome.

If English language is already available, though, where can I click to enable it?

I am writing to you from 2023 (five years after "The next version will consider the English version"). This reader plugin still looks very promising!! But I can't figure out how to switch the interface to English. Can you tell me where to click?

Agree, looks very nifty but no English is unfortunate. Additionally adding western-type services such as PayPal to purchase the premium version would help open SimpRead to many more users.
