Features	6.0 The extension makes it easy to save web pages. This worked perfectly in our tests. All texts, including images, were saved correctly in a new page in Notion. However, some users report that various types such as mathematical formulas are not saved or are not saved correctly. When saving the page, you are asked where it should be saved in Notion. The immediate organization of the saved content with tags, as illustrated in the Chrome store, is not possible via the extension, but only in Notion. This also includes highlighting text passages. An important component for us is the cross-device access, due to the direct saving in Notion, so you can read clipped pages on any device, online or offline.	9.2 Recall's range of functions is impressive for a relatively new tool. The AI summary works on a wide range of content, from articles to YouTube videos with a running time of several hours. We particularly liked the personal knowledge base and the way Recall automatically links related content. Spaced Repetition and Active Recall are outstanding features for students. However, some features are still in beta or will be available soon. The functions in the free version are severely limited in the number of users per day, and there is an upper limit for free use.
Performance	6.5 Overall, we found the program to be a basic web clipping app that is well suited for saving basic websites. However, some users report problems saving all content, such as math formulas, in the reviews. Performance can also vary depending on the browser and operating system.	9.0 Retrieval is fast and reliable in most cases. The summary is fast, even with very extreme examples such as a 9-hour news show that we had summarized in our test. Occasionally, we encountered errors or slowdowns, especially when asking further questions about the summarized content via the wizard. The team is actively working on performance improvements and there are regular updates. Overall, the tool feels stable and is suitable for everyday use.
Design	7.0 The design is clear and concise. However, this is simply because there are hardly any customization options.	9.0 The user interface has a clear and modern design. The focus is on user-friendliness. We found the browser extension intuitive and easy to navigate. The tagging and organization system can be used flexibly, and some users mentioned minor bugs in the user interface, but these were only minimally noticeable in the test.
Value for Money	8.0 Use of the extension is free of charge. However, compared to other providers of Web Clipper for Notion, it does not offer many functions. Whether a free version of Notion is sufficient for saving websites in the long term is another question. In our opinion, however, you get good value for money with the Plus version, which in particular allows you to save unlimited data.	8.1 The free tariff is suitable for infrequent users who do not need all the functions, as you will quickly reach the map limit. However, if you want to use the extension on a day-to-day basis, you cannot avoid the extension. The paid plan is competitively priced, especially with the student discount. We appreciate that some features will remain free forever, and the team is open to feedback on pricing. Compared to alternatives, Recall offers good value for money for those who need advanced knowledge management features, but casual users may find the limitations too restrictive and stop using the extension.
Ease of Use	8.0 The installation worked perfectly. Saving pages is intuitive and further processing in Notion is also easy for Notion users. The fact that you can't set tags directly in the extension is a disadvantage. If you haven't used Notion before, you will need to find your way around the app first, as you will be overwhelmed with many functions, especially at the beginning.	8.0 An account is required to use Recall. However, due to the integration with a Google and Apple login, this should be easy for everyone. Saving and summarizing content is a one-click process that is well explained at the beginning. However, mastering all functions (e.g., nested tags, links, and spatial repetitions) requires some time and some searching, which can lead to many users not being able to exploit the full potential.
Security & Privacy	8.2 Notion takes standard measures to protect user data. It also complies with the most important data protection regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. Only the use of cookies and tracking technologies by Notion is somewhat questionable.	9.9 Recall is characterized by its privacy-friendly approach. User data is not used by the extension for advertising, profiling, or AI training. All content is stored securely, and users retain full control over their data. Data can be exported for inspection or deleted at any time. The data protection guidelines are transparent, and support is always available to answer questions about data protection. We were unable to identify any uncertainties during our review.
Conclusion	In summary, the Notion Web Clipper is a useful tool for saving and organizing web content directly in your Notion workspace. However, there are some limitations, such as not being able to mark things up or set tags directly from the extension. This is done afterwards in Notion. There are also occasional problems with saving certain types of content such as mathematical formulas. Despite these drawbacks, it can be a valuable addition to your productivity toolkit, especially if you're already a Notion user.	Recall impressed us with its useful intelligent use of AI and its focus on helping users in their everyday lives, especially when learning. The browser extension makes it easy to capture content, and the revision features with auto-generated questions are a real bonus for learners. For occasional users, the free version may be enough, but if you want to use the extension, you can't avoid the paid version. The extension is not yet perfect and has small bugs, but the team reacts quickly to these and feedback, and many new functions are currently being introduced. Overall, Recall is a good choice for anyone looking to do more than just bookmark cards and build a personal knowledge base. If you're tired of forgetting what you've read online and want to save time, it's a must!
