User reviews

Not useful for people that use two languages all the time. Works on some words, but unfortunately also works on English, making guess to güss (no such word in German)

Sehr angenehm, aber nicht perfekt. Aber das bisschen nacharbeiten ist dann selten genug. Beispiel: Quelle wurde zu Qülle. Eher eine 19/20 als eine 4/5... :D
