Features & Capabilities

Usage

You can set spell checking always on or off from the settings with a blacklist and whitelist. You can set spell checking temporarily on or off on the current page either from the toolbar or from the context menu. Once you start writing, the text in an element will be spell checked and highlighted.

You can get suggested words for incorrect words by moving the text cursor on a word and pressing the right mouse button and select a suggested word from the context menu. You can also add a word to your own dictionary from the menu. Or you can add words to the dictionary from the options page.

By pressing ctrl + shift + F you can open a sidebar where highlighting of errors works for sure.

User Reviews

Ei tunnu toimivan. Ensinnäkään, kun valikossa lukee "Temporarily on" (tai off), en tiedä tarkoittaako se sen hetkistä tilaa, vaiko että sen valitsemalla tila vaihtuu siksi. Kun kirjoitin eräälle sivulle sanat "oranki" ja "appelssiini", molemmat saivat punaisen alleviivauksen (normaali oikolukuni on UK English) - konteksti valikossa näkyi Fin Spellin kohdalla "Temporarily on" ja sen klikkaus poisti punaiset alleviivaukset, mutta vaikka muokkasin sanat varmasti virheellisiksi, niin tilanne ei muuttunut. Kun näpäytin uudelleen kontekstivalikosta Fin Spell (jossa nyt luki "Temporarily off", niin punaisett alleviivaukset palasivat, joten oletan että teksti tarkoittaa tilaa johon vaihdetaan jos senvalitsee. Jokat apauksessa Fin Spell ei näyttänyt toimivan vaan yksinkertaisesti hyväksyi kaiken. En ole varma asensinko laajennuksen täätä kautta, vai githubin lähdekoodista - ainakin jollakin koneella tein niin. Olisiko parempi jos poistaisin sen ja asentaisin varmuudeksi uudelleen sen täältä?

Is Fin Spell Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Fin Spell requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
