If you feel like your ideas don't always get through to others or you'd like to have an easier time being understood, good basic grammar is a great place to start and an easy fix. I’d love to know your thoughts.
@lorenipsumner hey @Brian Ky, all good questions.
First, Grammarly is a spell checker: you give it your text and it’ll highlight your mistakes. This will focus on teaching you what’s what so you can avoid the mistakes yourself in the future, and it will do so in plain simple terms (compared to the much more difficult definitions from dictionaries or grammar books).
Because of that, there’s no data tracking, you don’t actually write anything in the app and it doesn’t communicate with any servers.
There’s also no monetisation plan, I considered charging for it but at the end of the day this is a pretty small side project and I’ll just be happy if it helps a few people. There are no ads, no in app purchases, all free.
If you have an iOS device, feel free to take it for a spin and let me know what you think.
Grammar Fix is 100% free and it's here to help you understand and avoid the 10 most common grammar mistakes in as little as 10 minutes each.
This app will explain some of the most common mistakes in plain terms, and will explain what's what in only minutes with examples and even a short quiz after each mistake. Understanding basic grammar shouldn't take a deep dive into pages and pages of dictionaries and grammar books.
Does grammar actually matter? Yes! Grammar is just a set of rules we all use when speaking and writing so that we understand each other clearly. If we all use the same rules, we don’t have to think too hard about what we're trying to say, and can instead focus on our ideas.
There's a short video of it here (from the app store, so nothing fancy): https://youtu.be/xV134oEaK_Y

It honestly boggles my mind that's so many people can not tell the difference between their and they're (same for you're vs your and all the rest.)
Hey @vada_pav , I’m afraid there’s no Android version on the roadmap. This is a side project for me and I’m not familiar with developing for Android. Of course if there is enough demand, I could look at a React app.

@cristianmoisei oh thanks, if you can make an android version possible , you could be opening doors to much more ppl around the world
