Automatic Spelling Language is a Chrome extension that intelligently switches the spell checking dictionary based on the detected language within text input fields. Utilizing the Compact Language Detection (CLD2) framework integrated into Firefox, it identifies the input text language to apply the correct dictionary automatically, enhancing multilingual typing experiences without sending data to external servers.

The extension supports over 60 languages including English, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, Russian, and more. It's tested on popular platforms like GitHub, Gmail, Reddit, Stack Exchange, Trello, and Wikipedia, ensuring seamless operation across common sites. Users can reset or adjust content preferences if manual dictionary selections have overridden automatic detection, providing full control over spell check behavior. Perfect for multilingual users, it enhances productivity by removing manual dictionary switching while maintaining privacy and accuracy.

User reviews

Pros

Helps to automatically switch between spell-check languages which is convenient for users typing in multiple languages.
Users found it effective after a few adjustments and restarts, especially in specific applications like Gmail.
Some users expressed gratitude for the add-on, feeling it addressed a long-standing need for better multi-language support in Firefox.

Cons

Often fails to work consistently, with many users reporting that it stops functioning over time or does not switch languages as expected.
Requires manual adjustments and often necessitates restarting Firefox or the add-on to achieve functionality.
Limited to identifying the entire text field instead of individual sentences, making it difficult to spell-check multiple languages within the same text area.
