Grammarly: AI Writing and Grammar Checker App by Grammarly

Rated 3 out of 5
by Frankieo1920, 9 years agoGreat app, does the work it's said to do, and seems to help very well with teaching how to use comma's and how to write sentences correctly.
HOWEVER!
If you are a fast writer, then I CANNOT with good conscious recommend this app.
While I was making a long comment on Facebook, the process was made longer by having this app enabled while writing, because the app could not keep up with my speed of writing, and caused Firefox to run very slowly and laggy, making me wait a second or two before I would be able to see what I've just written, and words would more often than not be jumbled into each other as I had not paused a split second between each fully spelled word so that the app could keep up with controlling words and sentences.
As soon as I had disabled the app, everything went smoothly and perfectly again, and I could write at my own speed again with no laggs or anything.
If the creator can somehow fix this issue, then I would give the app top rating, but seeing as how I want to write at my own speed with no issues, I cannot give this a better score than a 3 star score.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18097105, a day agoThe base Grammarly features used to be absolutely great. And for simple corrections, it still is helpful. However, it is absolutely intrusive with all the other AI recommendations that you can only view with a subscription. You get absolutely numb to all the squiggly lines it places under your writing. Unfortunately, it has been surpassed by better add-ons for these jobs.

…but
You cannot use the extension without signing in. WTF ?!?
..what a huge breach of privacy, it's like holding a carrot in front of a horse to make it move forward, it's manipulative, and just a lie. - Rated 1 out of 5by dp, 2 months agocollects website data by modifing the body secton on EVERY website (inspect): data-new-gr-c-s-check-loaded="8.934.0" data-gr-ext-installed="" data-gr-ext-disabled="forever" , and sometimes gives commas in the middle of words.

- Rated 1 out of 5by justinmyersm, 4 months agoGrammarly has become absolutely terrible recently. It consistently will add punctuation in the middle of words, instead of where it was suggesting. The Pro nagging is also uncalled for and just gets in the way of doing anything actually productive. I can no longer recommend Grammarly.

- Rated 1 out of 5by KP, 7 months agoUsed to be good, now it gives out incorrect suggestions because they turned to AI. Doesn't load most of the time.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Orion, 8 months agoThe addon is good, but it causes UI freezing, especially on MacOS, and to fix that I need to switch to other application and then back to FF.
- Rated 2 out of 5by MrB, 8 months agoSo awhile back just staying signed out and taking the few freebies they let you had was enough to let it live sitting there probably harvesting data or extrapolating or whatever word used to obfuscate how my usage gains them something. Then little annoyances grew and festered, like the suggestion popup starting to block more and more of the UI and causing real delays, less of this, more nag, more less, and less and less reasons to keep it around. Welp, one spellcheck and then you be a nagging me boy?! let me show you what ingrates gits when them britches gets too big and your booty ain't paying the rent no moe. Adios Grammar Nationalist Socialists let the purge of all things green begin! Whaaaagh!
