by leomon32, 2 years agoIt works nicely, but since the 13th of July update, I have a constant "!" warning when I write a text and I have to click it then click "I understand" in a separate page like 10 times a day, I don't know why it was perfect before...

- Rated 3 out of 5by Sebo1020, 7 days agoThe spell check system automatically checks punctuation first and highlights text in yellow ...which automatically blocks/disables spell check itself, how come there is no way to configure the order of these options

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18321141, 9 days agoThis is not a local spellchecker (all browsers use to have local spellcheckers)
"LanguageTool" forwards all of your text to third party servers (wasting data and adding latency) and does not show you errors until responses are received from those servers (huge lag)
Mobile Firefox removed its spellchecker because Android had a spellchecker, but Google removed Android's spellchecker because most browsers has spellcheckers.
LanguageTool is now the sole result for https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/search/?q=spell%20checker but our business does not allow apps that forward text to remote servers.
Now 4 stars due to responses about local serversDeveloper response
posted 9 days agoYour business can also run the LT server locally, as described at https://dev.languagetool.org/http-server. The latency for checking is usually <1 second, please report a bug in our forum at https://forum.languagetool.org/ if it's slower for you. - Rated 4 out of 5by Reggie L Addison, 10 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Andy, 14 days agoI'm so sad this add-on isn't working anymore. I've used this for over a year and it was incredible, even without accessing the paid tools. Today I starting working as usual, correcting some papers, and I saw the tool didn't catch very simple mistakes (one of the sentences was "I cook burger and pizza"). IDK what happened, but I'll be deleting the extention for now.

posted 14 days agoWe haven't changed the error detection logic recently. However, it's possible that some errors are not detected, but we're constantly improving the system. - Rated 5 out of 5by AMN2080, 15 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Lucas Dondo, 17 days agoI absolutely love it! It even looks for onomatopoeias, and when writing in Spanish (my main language) and I look for more information over some correction made, it redirects me directly to RAE's explanation! So, so, so, so, so nice! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
P.D.: RAE is the "Real Academia Española", like English's Cambridge.
P.D.: Oh, and I wait for the Android app! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18287681, 18 days ago
