- Rated 3 out of 5by AJ, 15 days agoExcellent product. However, not satisfied with the add-on. The inline pop-up closes every time the page is scrolled. My display is 1280x, and I use a mouse, and i will have to scroll to see the language suggestions. It becomes very annoying to reopen often. Need an option to close manually only using the close button, it should not close on page scroll. It also sometimes closes itself, when fetching paraphrasing suggestions, must be a bug.
Update: Posted, and pending.Developer response
posted 15 days agoSorry about that, but I cannot reproduce it, and we didn't get this kind of bug report before. You might want to post to our forum (https://forum.languagetool.org) with a more detailed description that allows reproducing the issue. - Rated 3 out of 5by thehumanx, 2 months ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Timothy, 2 months agoI would rate 5 stars but I think you should be able to turn of the notification that the text has advanced errors. I understand that they need a subscription of that but I think we should have the option to not accept, I would rather it just ask me if I wanted to upgrade every once in a while rather than always tell me that there is a problem and not telling me how to fix it.

- Rated 3 out of 5by leomon32, 8 months 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 Firefox user 14204540, 9 months agoIt will work almost all the time when correcting your spelling, but many times it misses the grammar, hence not as polished as Grammarly.
Example:
OK, so I write the text, and it will correct me attempt (this sentence is correct according to LanguageTool
However, according to Grammarly it corrected my text to (OK, so I write the text, and it will correct 'my' attempt) which, I believe, is better.
There are many more cases where LT cannot detect the proper grammar. Also, I am on premium plan with ''Enhanced grammar, punctuation and style checking''. The only reason I use it because it helps me with additional language. Overall, it is decent for the job, but if you speak only English, then I don't recommend it. - Rated 3 out of 5by Bernard, a year ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13113988, a year agoEs wäre schon wenn das System noch was besser mit meinem FireFox arbeitet. Das heist den Text den ich schreiben will besser über das Adon nutzen zu können. Und das Kontrollieren eines Dokument über Browser von Texten könnte bei dem Preis auch was besser klappen. Alle weiteren Anwendungen wird die Software mir zu teuer. Ich bezahle schon eine Jahresgebühr und die ist teuer genug um das Unternehmen und die Idee zu Finanzieren für Open-Source
- Rated 3 out of 5by Eric, a year agoThe LanguageTool plugin works well; however, I have noticed that this plugin is inferior to the LanguageTool editor. I can apply all corrections from the plugin, then paste the corrected text in the editor and find additional corrections. I would have expected the same performance for both the editor and the plugin.
Note: I found the same issue with the Thunderbird plugin and added the same comment there.Developer response
posted a year agoThe editor and the add-on use the same backend (unless you use a local server), so the results are the same. You might have enabled picky mode in the editor, but not in the browser add-on. If you still see differences, please contact our support (see https://languagetool.org/legal for our email address). - Rated 3 out of 5by Святослав, a year agoЧто то у меня складывается двоякое впечатление, что с каждым обновлением идёт ограничение возможностей... специально сделал простую ошибку и корректор не справился, то есть даже близкого варианта не дал (яндекс исправил сразу) ➜ https://i4.imageban.ru/out/2021/11/28/ef517302342ae81ff5e87be747a27eb7.jpg
Хотя раньше подобного не было.
Плюс к тому же ещё одна неприятная ситуация... После обновления до версии 4.4.0 браузер стал дольше загружаться... моё мнение, вина тому встроенный таймер рекламы (зачем он?)

P.S.
Вот и спрашивается, зачем мне продолжать пользоваться вашим приложением, если производительность браузера стала падать, плюс явное занижение возможностей приложения.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a twofold impression that with each update there is a limitation of possibilities... I made a simple mistake on purpose and the proofreader failed, that is, I didn't even give a close option (yandex corrected it right away) ➜ https://i4.imageban.ru/out/2021/11/28/ef517302342ae81ff5e87be747a27eb7.jpg
Although there was no such thing before.
Plus, another unpleasant situation... After upgrading to version 4.0, the browser took longer to load... my opinion, the fault is the built-in advertising timer (why is it?)

Browser loading speed on the version before last...

P.S.
So the question is, why should I continue to use your application if the browser performance began to drop, plus a clear underestimation of the application's capabilities.
===================================
Дополнительно: Ответ разработчику...
Ну да, давайте приплетать систему, а на втором компьютер проблема тоже характерная для моей системы? Та же проблема, замедление запуска браузера на несколько секунд...
Так что проблема в вашем дополнение, а конкретней в рекламном таймере.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additionally: The answer to the developer ...
Well, yes, let's tie in the system, and on the second computer the problem is also characteristic of my system? The same problem, slowing down the launch of the browser for a few seconds ...
So the problem is in your add-on, and more specifically in the advertising timer.Developer response
posted a year agoHi, we constantly improve LanguageTool. We have 2 million installations of our add-on across browsers, and so far, nobody else complained about the add-on becoming slower. I suspect this might be an issue specific to your system. Feel free to contact our support. You can find the email at https://languagetool.org/legal.
Update: Neither we nor any other user can confirm the issue, so please contact our support with more details about your browser version, operating system and other add-ons in use. - Rated 3 out of 5by Joachim, a year ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by flasoft, 2 years agoÉ bom... mas poderia ter uma opção de ligar e desligar geral de forma mais simples, para só fazer uma revisão no final.
Em alguns momentos é incrível, sugeriu por exemplo, "Vamos criar" por "Criaremos" ou "Budget" por "Orçamento" ou "como um todo" por "na totalidade"... Em outros não entendo, por exemplo, não percebe qualquer erro nesta frase: "A rais da árvore esta podre" - Rated 3 out of 5by Luciano Faria, 2 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16780286, 2 years agoВ русском регулярно предлагает ошибочные исправления. Нужна какая-нибудь кнопка, чтобы пользователь мог на это указать. Особенно под орфографию стоило бы прикрутить какой-нибудь официальный словарь.
