About Vimi Bilingual

Read webpages bilingually and build vocabulary: save words, review with spaced repetition, take tests. Free, private, on-device. Vimi Bilingual turns everyday web reading and video watching into language learning. Translate any page into a side-by-side bilingual view, watch videos with bilingual subtitles, save new words with a single highlight, and let spaced-repetition review and smart tests do the rest — all running 100% on your device. No account, no API key, nothing sent to a server. Meet Vimi, your cute study companion who lives on the page, walks around, and gently reminds you of words you’re learning. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEY FEATURES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ > In-place bilingual reading Turn translation on and see the translated text appear right below the original — keep the context, read both languages at once. Works on articles, blogs, docs, and news. Customize translation colors and manage auto-translate sites easily. > Dual-language video subtitles Watch videos with bilingual subtitles on YouTube, Plex, Pluto TV, and other video platforms. See both languages side by side, catch spoken vocabulary naturally, and highlight words directly from captions. > Smart reading aids (Passive learning) • Highlight saved words: Underlines words you already learned when you meet them again on any webpage — hover to review their meaning and context. • Sprinkle translations: Subtly replaces selected saved words with their translations directly on pages for effortless passive acquisition. • Reveal-on-hover mode: Blurs translations until you hover the original sentence, training you to read the foreign text first. > Highlight to save & translate Select any word or phrase to instantly view its translation, hear natural pronunciation, and save it with the original context sentence. Add personal notes, mnemonics, or collocations. Long passages (>60 characters) open in a compact, draggable dialog with independent scrolling. > Spaced-repetition review (SM-2) Review your saved words as flashcards. The proven SM-2 algorithm schedules each word at the perfect moment so you remember it long-term with minimal effort. Create custom decks, flip cards, listen to audio, and preview next review intervals. > Scheduled tests & cloze practice Set how often you want to be tested (daily, every 3 days, weekly, or biweekly) and question count (10/20/30). Choose multiple-choice, typing, or cloze (fill-in-the-blank) questions generated from the real sentences you saved. > Learning dashboard & streak tracking Track your current and best study streaks, daily learning goals, vocabulary breakdown (new / learning / mastered), 14-day activity chart, and GitHub-style yearly review heatmap. > Full backup & Anki CSV export Your data belongs to you. Export your vocabulary to Anki-compatible CSV, import existing decks, or create a complete JSON backup to sync across computers. > Local document translation (Doc2Notion) Translate local PDFs, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx/.csv), and Markdown documents bilingually via companion integration with Doc2Notion (https://doc2-notion.vercel.app/). > Vimi, your companion A charming chibi mascot that wanders the page, reacts, and pops up vocabulary you’re learning. Drag her anywhere, poke her for fun, or toggle her visibility instantly from the toolbar popup. > 50+ languages Default English → Vietnamese, with many language pairs supported. Switch translation languages on the fly right from in-page translation cards. > 100% private & on-device AI Vimi runs on Chrome’s built-in on-device Translator (Chrome/Edge 138+). Your reading and your words never leave your computer — zero tracking, no cloud latency, no API keys. Works offline once the local language model downloads, with live download tracking in the popup and cloud fallback if needed. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PERFECT FOR ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Language learners reading real-world content and articles in a foreign language • Video enthusiasts watching foreign YouTube videos and streaming shows with dual subtitles • Bilingual readers who want both languages side by side without switching tabs • Anyone building active vocabulary from what they already read and watch every day Install, open any page or video, and start learning. Highlight a word — that’s all it takes. Note: Requires Chrome/Edge 138+ for the built-in on-device Translator. The language model downloads once directly to your device and works offline. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT'S NEW IN v2.1.5 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Offline AI model manager — view model download status, live progress bar, and readiness directly in the popup and welcome screen. • Quick language switcher — switch translation pairs directly from the header of any translation card on the page. • Smart reading aids — highlight saved words across the web, sprinkle translations into articles, and reveal translations on hover. • Cloze (fill-in-the-blank) tests — practice vocabulary using the real context sentences you saved while browsing. • Notes & examples on words — attach custom mnemonics, notes, and collocations to any saved vocabulary item. • Full backup & Anki CSV export — backup your entire vocabulary and settings or export cards directly to Anki. • Long text popup dialog — compact, draggable dialog with independent scrolling for passages over 60 characters, with automatic speech stop on close. • Local document translation — companion support for translating local PDFs, Word, Excel, and Markdown files via Doc2Notion. • Fix some bugs ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
