# Review Existing Annotations

> Learn how to review annotations, add comments, and approve or reject labeling work

Learn how to review annotations as a reviewer, provide feedback through comments, and approve or reject completed labeling work.

## Step 1: Add Comments During Review

A reviewer role can add comments with different severity levels for labelers to see in real time and reply.

To add a comment:

1. Click the comment button on the right
2. Click anywhere on the image to drop a comment there

Comment levels available:

* **INFO**: General information or suggestions
* **WARNING**: Issues that should be addressed
* **ERROR**: Critical problems that must be fixed

## Step 2: Manage Issues in the Right Panel

The labeler right panel displays a list of all issues (comments) added to the current image.

Users can:

* **Reply**: Other users can reply to issues for discussion
* **Resolve**: Mark an issue as resolved once addressed
* **Remove**: Issue owner can remove an issue entirely from the job

## Step 3: Filter and View Resolved Issues

Use the filter at the top right to control which issues are displayed.

The filter allows you to:

* **Show all issues**: View both open and resolved issues
* **View resolved issues**: See previously resolved issues
* **Reopen issues**: Reopen resolved issues for further actions if needed

## Step 4: Approve or Reject the Job

Once you've finished reviewing all images, you can approve or reject the job overall.

As a reviewer:

1. Go back to the job overview page
2. Click **Reject** or **Approve** at the top right

This completes the review cycle and notifies the labeler of the outcome.

Happy labeling!
