by Maria Kolesnikova Nov. 18, 2021

Nov. 18, 2021

Hi All, I'd appreciate if some of you could make short testing of https://uasg.tech/ website and alarm any problems that you will find while using it (wrong links, empty pages, errors, etc.) to me. It also helps a lot if you make testing from different devices (computers, mobile phones, tablets) and include information about these devices + browsers in your reports at once. Plus screenshots with problems on the website met by you will be of much help. Thank you in advance! Maria Kolesnikova
