Does not catch simple spelling errors. It is a waste of your valuable time to download the app.

Completely useless. Uninstalled it immediately. Too slow, full of ads.

it sucks. Does NOT auto correct tho the box is checked to do so. Have to click at upper right of page and a box comes up. Have to enter word, click to check, and below, correct spelling then shows.

Worst spell checker ever......I accidentally mistype something like surprise by adding a letter like surplise and it given you twenty option of garbage....this happens constantly.

Authors of this plugin are idiots.

It says it checks English spelling, but it actually means American. There doesn't appear to be any option to set it to check in English English.

A hassle to use. Too many additional clicks to correct a word,. Opens a separate window to an interface that must have been designed in the early 1990s. The corrections are very hit and miss too.

Useless I'm afraid, does not work at all, so added Grammarly, and see what THAT does. Don't hold out much hope though. Hang on a mo, it's working, or something is.

Not intuitive. Have not found any alternative to cut and paste to get text spell checked.

Are you kidding me? I purposely typed a paragraph riddled with spelling errors and this didn't even catch them! It's not worth using.

It sucks. Does nto spell check half the time and when you try to get it to do so it highlights mispelled words but gives you no options of correctly spelled words. Useless! Notice I misspelled soem words IT DID NIOT CORRECT! Or offer options.And it is enabeled. Garbage !

NO ARABIC SUPPORT! Although the overview says it supports Arabic as one of the 25 languages.

Not intuitive, impractical, always opening a new window and does not even have a comprehensive dictionary for spelling correction.

Have to agree with Charlotte this program sure needs some major help. I'll be deleting it and in search for another

Fails in the most important area: doesn't actually correct spelling errors. I typed "spellign" and "erors" to test this, and it didn't pick up on either.

I was looking for an extension that spell checked in browser. this was not it.

★☆☆☆☆2016-03-15

Bon soir. Ca va? The C of Ca needs an accent (a cedilla). This great Spell Checker does not indicate that it's wrong. No red highlight at all. So you have to know how to spell French words what makes this crapp useless. Deleted it.

"This web page is not available." That's the only thing it does. One star because the message itself is spelled correctly.

did not correct anything just sat there. was unable to cut and paste error to find corrections. pointed out errors after rewiritng it in it box. those underline in red wrong but no way to correct them, unlike a real laptop and browser.
