Rated 3 out of 5
by L. Wi., 3 months agoPlease remove the annoying premium upgrade nag screen, it's very attention grabbing and is definitely going to make me uninstall the app faster than actually buying the extended features.
Also the errors tally/bubble keeps blocking my view of the text box, as well as blocking out buttons in the GUI I need to be able to press.
Otherwise, it is very fast and intuitive, I just wish these two things were thought out better before being introduced.

- Rated 5 out of 5by stefansoyka, 2 hours agoViel besser als alles, was ich vorher ausprobiert habe. Eine echte Hilfe, die auch Casus, Numerus und Genus von abhängigen Worten prüft. Ist auch in LibreOffice eine schöne Ergänzung, wenn man mal offline schreibt.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Endless Fantasy, 5 hours agoTwo stars for not including an option to select, an “Any dialect” in the which dialect to use dropdown, or select multiple as a bubble, as either a basic or advanced option.
I consider this a critical feature of any language tool, especially a spell check.
I'd also like to be able to select “Show both as a suggestion” For these features of premium let alone recommend it as a user I want more freedom of expression in how I type, sometimes to type in standard “wrong” variations and even recommend them (The horror!!!):
Wrong Punctuation
Incorrect Word Combinations
Advanced Missing Commas
Foreign Terms
It's also lacking several important features such as custom dictionaries from what I can tell.
There's no excuse for not loading from standard formats for this.
Review was edited using this software.
The software also disguises telling you about "Advanced" errors, as a form of very blatant advertisement, and front-loads its AI paraphrasing, and rewriting system as much as it reasonably can without impacting the user experience.
As a user I don't want this, I don't want to know if I made an advanced spelling mistake, because I know that The software does not support that because I read the page, I expect no scanning, not ad's for scanning disguised as good faith showcasing of your product, or the user's failures.
It needs to be a default off option like "Enable scanning of user text for premium features, to warn user about their mistakes" would be ideal.
There's not even any options clutter yet, good work, but its not configurable enough.
Id say my review rating is: Stalker HoC's reception. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18697898, 8 hours ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14487727, 4 days agoI have ProWritingAid Premium, which supposedly gives me the capabilities of this Add-on but I turned it off--will use it for large volume writing and editing--and bought the Pro version of LT instead for everyday use. It is really efficient on PC resources! That is a big deal for me. Apps that cause my PC to buffer or hang up kill my flow and productivity. I wished LT Pro had a writing level complexity rating, a la Hemingway Editor. The annual fee is not cheap either. My Lifetime PWA Premium license is a vastly superior deal. However, for efficient writing assistance and supervision, as you go, this is showing itself to be a standout tool.
