Latest reviews
- (2025-07-23) Martin Stoll: An excellent solution for anyone who works intensively with Jira! Please note: The diff view currently does not work when the user interface language is set to German. This may also be the case for languages other than English. If in doubt, simply switch Jira to English.

- (2025-02-11) Jasen Moloy: Huge improvement when reviewing the history of changes of a tickets. It's currently impossible to know at a glance what was added and removed. Having a comparison tool makes it easy to review at a glance.
