How do I get spell correction for Android? [Solved] - eviltoast

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.

    Heliboard isn’t perfect but is an openboard fork that has spell check, is getting active development, and is on F-droid. There’s even a correction sensitivity setting. It’s the first time I’ve been able to move away from Swiftkey.

      Doesn’t seem to work.

      No red underline.

        Ah sorry, I missed a bit in your post - it’s correction during typing only. Upping this setting could help but I suspect you want something else
