SubPair vs Language Reactor
Short answer: both are Chrome extensions that show two subtitle lines on Netflix and YouTube. Language Reactor is the established choice and also works with imported text and websites. SubPair adds Disney+ and keeps word and phrase saving, plus 100 auto-translated lines a day, on its free plan. SubPair is not on the Chrome Web Store yet.

When Language Reactor is the better fit
- You want to start today: it is on the Chrome Web Store, and SubPair isn’t yet.
- You also study from books, articles or websites, not only from video.
- You already have a vocabulary history there and want to keep using it.
When SubPair is the better fit
- You watch on Disney+ as well as Netflix and YouTube.
- You want to save words and phrases without paying, with spaced-repetition review and CSV or SRT export on the free plan.
- Your language pair is often missing on Netflix, and 100 free auto-translated lines a day cover what you watch.
- You use Linux or ChromeOS (Language Reactor’s store listing names Windows and macOS).
How SubPair builds the second line
On Netflix and YouTube, SubPair first looks for the platform’s own subtitle track in your language and lines it up with the original by time, so the second line is ready as the episode starts and never counts toward a limit. Auto-translation only fills the lines or languages a title doesn’t have. On Disney+, SubPair translates each line as Disney+ shows it. The setup guides explain each platform: Netflix, YouTube and Disney+.
