Bionica Bots (ID: 000000dd3de6a218) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/21/2022 I actually love it and would give 5 stars. Only issue is since yesterday? The comment field is suddenly white and text is white - so you can't see what you're writing. This needs to be fixed. Beside that it did work smooth and as it supposed to. Once this is fixed I will give 5 stars for sure.
