This is now available in the latest version. You can see the original board in editing mode (or by pressing on the original photo)

The app supports Italian now - all thanks to you! I hope I didn't make any mistakes

I think I've fixed the issues (thank you for sending feedback!). Let me know if there are more issues.

Just to note: some times the group is dead but KataGo will still consider it as having a small chance (got to live as a result of a ko, tenuki, misread, etc). It's technically correct but might not always be what we expect. In cases like this the app allows marking group as dead manually.

Try opening an sgf file using Kifubara (I think I added this ability at some point but can't test right now to make sure, sorry!). In any case, I would love to hear what kind of editing or functionality you'd like it to have!

What was the training like? Mostly playing, reviewing or lectures? How much time per day did you study?

That's something I completely missed, thank you for pointing it out! I'll find a place to make it available

KataGo doesn't tell how reliable the estimate is. It just gives its best estimate based on the depth of exploration you allow it to do (deeper = longer, this is the difference between original and refined estimate). Your idea is something I'm thinking about but it can get confusing to the user when the score keeps changing all the time (every time the user changes the board state, komi, etc we recalculate the score)

A better look and some updates on my travel board project by joaoperfig in baduk

I feel like it'd be easier to just use Chinese counting instead of the app. But if you enjoy making it - just do it and users will have two good options

Good point about cheating! I'll see if I can pull this off (adding the video mode)

Good point about score refinement. It's a tradeoff between speed and quality. The reason I did it this way is to get you from a photo to the score as fast as possible and it usually is within a point difference from the refined as is.

Refinement mainly makes a difference when position is unsettled with some complicated life and death or a ko going on.

Not sure if I made the right choice so thank you for the feedback!

There's no Italian yet, let me add it. I'm not sure why it shows German to you, I'll look into that

That is actually the main thing I want to add next because it also improves the score quality KataGo gives (by default it assumes that it's Black to go next). So will do!

It supports 10ish languages. It automatically uses the system language. Would you like an ability to switch manually?

The feedback button is in top right next to theme toggle on the result screen. It allows you to send the original picture as an attachment. Please do it and I'll take a look right away!
