Dear Reed, 

Apologies for not responding earlier. 

One thing I have noticed is on iOS Safari (iPhone/iPad), the Google translate plugin does NOT work. I can open the dropdown showing all the language options, but then unable to select an language.

The google translate macro doesn't render in the mobile view of the page and I was using the view in desktop mode. 

I tried to view a page with the Bing translate plugin (https://community.icann.org/x/4DefAg).
This worked in iOS in both mobile. In  and desktop mode, although sometimes the Bing translate dropdown in the "view as desktop mode" only showed a subset (about 1/2) of the languages to pick from (but was still able to pick from this subset of languages for the machine translation to work).

Haven't tried with a Android Chrome browser, but I'm hoping someone on the TTF list can
try viewing 

- https://community.icann.org/x/GQeuAg to test the Google Translate plugin
- (https://community.icann.org/x/4DefAg to test the Bing translate plugin

Dear Dev,

Thanks again for today's discussion.  It was very good to talk to you about these things.

I've installed the Bing tool in an HTML Macro on https://community.icann.org/x/GQeuAg and gave you full permission to do as you wish.  I've positioned the macro to live at the top left-hand side of the space layout.  It's very easy to set up, and if you wish, I can add it to some of the ALAC spaces.  If someday we do find another tool that works better, remember that it would be best to remove this macro from all the spaces to which it was applied.

Please advise of any feedback.
