About
I wanted to understand Chinese text while watching videos and browsing without constantly copy pasting text into a translator. PopDict is a Windows desktop app for reading Chinese, and other languages with Sentences Mode, directly on your screen. Instead of copying text into another tool, you can hover your mouse below words for instant definitions or snip a sentence to get a full translation and learning breakdown.
It is built for moments where you are watching videos, reading comments, browsing websites, or navigating apps and want understanding quickly with minimal effort.
