| 41 | + |
| 42 | +## Find similar feedback |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +1. In the **Find similar feedback** section, look for bugs with similar feedback to see if anything matches the issue you're having. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | + * If you see feedback that's **similar or the same** as the issue you're experiencing, select this option. |
| 47 | + * If you don't see anything or are unsure of what to select, select **New feedback** and **Make a new bug**. |
| 48 | +1. Select **Next** to advance to the **Add more details** section. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +## Add more details |

| 52 | +In this section, you add diagnostic and other details. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +* If your feedback is a **Suggestion**, the app takes you directly to the **Attachments (optional)** section. |
| 55 | +* If your feedback is a **Problem** and you feel the problem merits more urgent attention, you can specify this problem as a high priority or blocking issue. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +In the **Attachments (optional)** section, you should supply as much comprehensive information as possible. If a screen doesn't look right, [attach a screenshot](#attach-a-screenshot). If you're reporting a problem other than a screen issue, it's best to follow the steps in [Recreate my problem](#recreate-my-problem) and then use the steps in [Attach a file](#attach-a-file) to attach the log files. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +### Attach a screenshot |

| 81 | + |
| 82 | +### Attach a file |
