Samuele gg (ID: 000000b00bfe818f) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/23/2023 Il riconoscimento è preciso e i risultati sono affidabili, ma è scomoda o lenta da utilizzare per un consulto veloce: nessun popup, si deve passare dal menù contestuale, inoltre nella sintesi non è inserito il tipo di colore utilizzato, ma solo il codice numerico d'identificazione. The recognition is precise and the results are reliable, but it is inconvenient or slow to use for a quick consultation: no popup, you have to go through the contextual menu, furthermore the type of color used is not included in the summary, but only the numerical code of identification.

Andre Tunley (ID: 000000466780ecb4) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/05/2022 I like it, does what it's supposed to do, and well. Occasionally asks you to reload the page if you've been working in another window.
