I suck at spelling and would like to know a word I have typed is wrong or not. Ideally with a red underline.

I really struggle looking at text I have written and seeing the mistakes. I have tried Samsung, openboard, gboard. None seem to fix the issue.

I’m willing to download anything as long as it’s not a privacy concern. Is there any way to get what I want.

I have a Samsung 22+ if that makes a difference

Glenrambo fixed it:

Settings > General Management > Language > Spelling Correction > Default spell checker.

    This (rarley mentioned) setting is separate to your keyboard.

    Having both keyboard and this set to Samsung is a good option.

    QIf not, try the GBoard app and put both as that.

    HeliBoard is an open source version of GBoard. Development has only just restartef so I recomendation getting a normal version working first.

      Omg what an absolute hero!

      Thanks mate, that’s they one! Samsung is just shit I guess. On Heliboard now and I like FOSS so it’s perfect.

      Thank you so much. My dyslexia thanks you.

        No worries. It was crazy when I found that too. And im still on Android 10.

        Still doesn’t always help. But its a start.
