"I recommend using this extension! I need notes to study, but I don’t really have the time to take notes. I can’t be stopping, rewinding and replaying the videos all the time. I tried having AI transcript audios taken from video lessons and summarize their content, but I don’t like the result, I need real notes! With Hovernotes, I let it do its thing and watch the video looking at the notes it generates, fix them if I need to, and then I can move to the studying part. Also the team is great, they're always looking for feedback to make the extension better. 10/10 worth the money!"
