To any devs reading this, let’s just come out and be very clear: whatever you have done in recent times has broken Grammarly and rendered its core feature to be virtually useless If you care at all about your work and spending your time doing something worthwhile, bring this to the top and have …
Grammarly!! Are you listening to your users?? This new AI update is so incredibly disappointing, and I can see that many people agree. It feels like the writing suggestions are worse, and all this AI slop is discouraging me from using Grammarly. PLEASE revert back to the old format!! …
Canclled my Grammarly subscription after 5 years I use to love Grammarly before it changed. I could just copy and paste an email or what ever I had written and it would automatically suggest changes to spelling and grammar,it was so simple. …
… I don't have Grammarly Pro, but it still highlights what it wants to fix. But it gives me 2 free samples a day...and half the time they don't make sense? Like, even *the actual software* acknowledges that they don't make sense. …
Why is grammarly premium adding commas in the middle of words like thi,s and tha,t. The app is now useless. I have tried everything on my m5. Uninstalled installed. Updated my word, grammarly. Cleared cache. All the solutions on the internet does not seem to work.
Grammarly is using our identities without permission
A huge problem with Grammarly, made worse by this, is that it becomes the equivalent of Académie Française for English and no further development of the language is permitted. …
I thought Grammarly was essential. It wasn't
