# ◾ Annotations during Video Review

Annotations are **notes and remarks** added to specific moments of the recording.

The **Annotations** tab is always displayed on the right side of the screen. However, it is only active **if a learner group has been assigned** to the recording.

Annotations can be added by category by typing the required remark in the ***Add annotation*** field.

Once an annotation is added, it is **reusable**. Therefore, the Add annotation field also functions as a search field for previously added annotations. When typing anything in the field, the system yields all results that have the typed character combination.

When a learner group is assigned to the recording, by default, all the learners of the assigned group are added to an annotation. Still, members can be deselected via the **All** button on the right side of the ***Selected Users*** field by clicking the names in the prompted pop-up.

:::info
An added annotation refers to the **most recently selected learner set**; that is, any change made to the selected learners will only apply to an annotation added thereafter.

:::warning
***IMPORTANT:*** Learners whose name is linked to an annotation will be shown that annotation in their video review.
