Kenneth Taylor (ID: 0000005dec0648ea) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/14/2023 Horrible! The Basic version is useless and the Pro Version which might have real utility is unobtainable. For a "Semantic Annotation" Tool that was introduced way back in 2013 what have the developers been doing in the meantime. Dusting off old open sources research and attempting to turn it into a commercial application...in this case...is an utter failure! Don't waste your time there are plenty of 'modern' alternatives! https://www.researchgate.net/publication/262358453_Semantic_annotation_with_Pundit_A_case_study_and_a_practical_demonstration

Antonio Manzoni (ID: 000000eb248bac6d) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 05/09/2019 the app does not allow me to log in...can you solve this issue please? It used to work a few moths ago, but now it doesn't. Thanks!

Logan Lynn Roberts (ID: 000000cacbe3a653) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/07/2016 Basic version doesn't have a composer like the Pro version so no idea how you are supposed to add any annotations. Pro version isn't functional, super buggy.

Obryan Poyser (ID: 00000017b961f45e) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/09/2016 I really like the extention. Feedback: 1) I think that the pop up on the down-left corner distracts too much. Maybe a option to disable it? 2) Sometimes I just need to highlight something, two clicks (button and the notebook) is tedious. Maybe a hot key to highlight only? Cheers!

Robert M. Papillion (ID: 000000f05c2be099) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/27/2016 So far, excellent for my needs. I can just go to the Web display of study articles on JW.org and annotate/ highlight the key texts for responding to the questions on each of the paragraphs. Best of all, I don't have to download ePub/ PDF/ Mobi/ RTF! The sidebar detail lines right up with the highlighted text. For instant access, I can label the Notebook with the same name and date as the study article. Great!
