yaller 1 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I write a novel with Evernote. However, the recent spelling function put pressure on my novel. Please make it possible to turn off and turn on spelling function. Although it was not easy to change the app because there were a lot of notes made in Evernote, if the problem persists, I am willing to move to another app without spelling marks.With years of affection with this program, I leave this article.I hope for a quick solution. 1 Link to comment
SM Hassel 1 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I have the exact same problem. It drives me nuts, that I can't turn it off. I have turned off "Highlight misspelled words" in Windows 10 settings, but it still underlines every single word I write in my notes, as I often take notes in different languages. I can't abstract from it, when I'm writing longer texts, so I have turned to writing my notes in Notepad and then copy paste it to Evernote afterwards. That is just counter-productive. I generally hate spelling aids. Notes are not always 100% percent correct, as the notetaking is often done in haste. I want my notetaking app to be like my Moleskine notebook. Just a blank canvas in most cases. Evernote, please fix this. Link to comment

rolig 1 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Yes, please make it possible to turn off the spell check (the red dotted line under words). When I write or read a note in Slovene (or some other non-English language), the red dots under every word drive me nuts. Updates should be improvements, not cause further annoyance! 1 Link to comment
am3_26 0 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Have the exact same problem. When I type in Estonian every word is underlined, and even when I turned off autocorrect in the Windows settings it had no effect on Evernote. Link to comment
mizunooto 0 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 As a new Evernote user, I have found this problem immediately. If it continues I won't be an Evernote user much longer and I certainly wouldn't pay for such a buggy product. There is no way to turn it off! "If a word in your note doesn't match your device's dictionary, the word will be called out with a red squiggled underline. There's no spell check feature built into Evernote for Windows."

genesse 0 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I have this issue too. It's not the red squiggly line. It's the dotted line as posted above by rolig. I cannot find a way to remove it. Please advise. Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,789 Posted June 13, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted June 13, 2022 File menu / settings / remove the check mark at spell checking. At least this is where it is located on the Mac client (There the file menu is called Evernote). Link to comment
