AutoCrit has a new way to seamlessly integrate with Grammarly, enhancing your document editing experience. Our latest approach features additional editing options to help elevate your writing. Utilizing the Grammarly integration within AutoCrit remains free and also entirely within your control.

This article will show you how to add the Grammarly extension to your Chrome browser.

First, for the extension to work, you need to have a free Grammarly account. If you need help creating one, you can see our article Spelling and Grammar.

Still seeing spelling corrections?


You might need to disable your browser's Spell Check:

1. Click on the three-dot menu button located at the end of the toolbar.

2. Click on "Settings" from the drop-down menu.

3. In the browser Settings on the left, click on "Languages".

4. Under the "Languages" section, you will find a toggle button for "Spell Check". Click on it to turn off Spell Check completely.

​

That's it! You have successfully disabled Spell Check on your Google Chrome browser.

If you ever want to re-enable it, simply follow the same steps and toggle the button back on.
