From English, Spanish, Portuguese, Turkish, Russian, French, Italian, Ukrainian, Polish, German, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. The dictionary card for a word works for English text.

Usually under a second on a modern PC. Chinese, Japanese and Korean take a few seconds the first time while the language model loads.

Only unlimited translations: the free plan allows 10 a day. All languages and features are the same.

Yes, a key works on two computers. To move it, choose “Deactivate this computer” in the Qlex Pro window and enter the key on another one.
