- Rated 1 out of 5by Antice, 2 years agoIt's very helpful if your time is worthless: it shuts down more and more of it's most useful feature for a paid version... even firefox default is catching up
- Rated 1 out of 5by Snow Wolf, 2 years agoExcept for the constant ads that tell me I would need to pay for an upgrade just to see other errors, I would have rated it higher. I am almost ready to report it for abuse.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16138008, 2 years agoDas Tool findet mehr Rechtschreibfehler als Microsoft Office 365. Respekt! Aber die Geschwindigkeit des Tools ist ein wahre Katastrophe. Ein Dokument über 1.000 Seiten prüft es abschnittsweise. So weit, so gut. Aber wenn eine Prüfung 15 Minuten dauert, und das immer wieder, dann ist es untauglich.
Ich bereue den Kauf zutiefst! - Rated 1 out of 5by James, 2 years ago

posted 3 years agoSorry it doesn't work for you. Which websites are affected? We can only fix issues like these if we can reproduce them. - Rated 1 out of 5by End User, 3 years agoBig checkmark obstacles view of input field, forcing to write without seeing. Could be shifted somewhere, or, better, removed completely. Whatsapp, Telegram, any on-liner input fields have this flaw.

- Rated 1 out of 5by OMG_WaitWhat, 3 years agoI have used this add-on several times, only to find that #1) It is the worst spell and grammar checker ever, and often highlights words and grammar that are correct. And #2) It significantly slows down my typing and browser. As soon as I removed it, my typing and browser speed was fine. I would give it NO stars if I could. /// In response to the Developer. It affected all websites I use on Firefox. I've never had issues before, and when I removed your app, the slowdown stopped. As for bad corrections, I no longer use the app, so I do not have screenshots and wouldn't know how to post them here anyway, because there is no way to post photos. Update: 4.25.21 I am going to give it a try again and see what happens. I removed some other add-ons and maybe they were the problem. Will update soon!

posted 3 years agoIt's strange that it slows down typing for you, which websites are affected? Other users don't have this issue. Also, please provide some examples for bad corrections.
Update: As we have 100,000+ users who don't have this problem, this must be something specific to your installation. We're happy to solve the issue if you contact our support (email at https://languagetool.org/legal/). Developer response

- Rated 1 out of 5by Mike Richards, 3 years agoThis tool prevented me from posting on Twitter over what it listed as grammar errors. When I attempted to override it, I was taken to a website wanting me to buy the premium version. I removed the tool. spell checking and grammatical checkers should only "SUGGEST". Maybe I wanted to be grammatically incorrect.

posted 3 years agoLanguageTool never prevents you from posting anywhere. If the icon is in the way, that's a bug. Please report such cases to our forum at https://forum.languagetool.org. - Rated 1 out of 5by way2dumb, 3 years ago"Big checkmark obstacles view of input field, forcing to write without seeing. Could be shifted somewhere, or, better, removed completely. Whatsapp, Telegram, any on-liner input fields have this flaw.' yes this is a real problem tht happens on a lot of places and one of my only complaints, could be fix by putting the buttons off of any user field. also no auto correct? fix that an ill change this back to 5 stars. or when i get a res ponce please. also the language tool does not seem to work on this age. Hence the loong sentences.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16492643, 3 years agoIt recently started making the txt jump around when sending DMs in twitter rendering it unusable. Before that I preferred it to the more popular one

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16165202, 4 years agoEven the premium version does not show simple article mistakes, and also the support team does not answer the questions.
My feedback was constructive with specific examples. You can check the emails. I received email from Christopher Blum at 12:51 Thu 12/11/2020 (EST).Developer response
posted 4 years agoWe answer every single feedback, as long as it's constructive. If you want LT to work better, we need specific example sentences.
Update: The sentence you later sent as an example is already detected on languagetool.org, the detection will soon be rolled out to all systems.
