Lead

Lead evaluation

The lead as it stands is pretty solid. I would recommend being a bit broader in the information provided though, as the lead starts to get into details that aren't reflected over the rest of the passage (and the lead should encompass everything).

Content

Content evaluation

The content is relevant and useful. I was happy to see multiple different examples represented here with the different types of applications and websites that are used as well as how they are used.

Tone and Balance

Tone and balance evaluation

The article for the most part is balanced. I would not use phrasing like "many of these apps hope to be able to" as this can be seen as persuasive or attempting to have an article sway someone.

A quick side note, there is improper grammar in the first sentence of the Verified Voting portion.

Sources and References

Sources and references evaluation

Good use of sources for the most part. They are mostly relevant and able to be used for Wikipedia (they are all working links). However, I would not recommend using company websites as sources for Wikipedia UNLESS it is to show certain things they do (capabilities for example).

Organization

Organization evaluation

The organization of this article makes sense. Reading it flows naturally and answers any questions that would come to mind as I progress. Well done here.

Images and Media

Images and media evaluation

Not applicable.

Overall impressions

Overall evaluation

Overall, I was actually very impressed with this addition. I was pretty harsh in my readings and I did not find a ton of things that needed alteration or to be fixed. There is always room for improvement, but for a start, very well done.
