Spellcheck works in English but not with other languages

[JasonMendoza 0]

I can only switch on and off spellcheck but there does not seem a way to support two languages. Any ideas about how to do it?

The spell check in Evernote links to the current language in use with your operating system.  So, if you are running an English language OS then that is what you get for spell check. At present it isn't possible to support two languages at the same time.

My OS is both French and English though:

Evernote should pick up the one that is current.  It cannot select from both at the same time. I haven't tried, but it may even be the display language. Try using French as your keyboard language. If that doesn't check in French, change the display language to French as well.  Does that switch to French.  DO let us know what you discover, It might assist others in the future.

The spell checker uses only the main language set on a computer. No secondary languages supported.

There are threads about the issue asking for a language selection. But currently you need to decide for yourself.

So basically no way of having two languages at a time? I don't want to switch manually. I want Evernote to automatically detect what language I'm using like Google Chrome:

No.

I've emailed evernote to ask the developers to enable this and they said they would work on it and it might be abled in the next version of evernote.

I'm curious what email address you used to do this? I've only heard of people issuing support tickets or hitting the Evernote account up on Twitter. Every once in a while an EN employee will post in these forums too. It would be great if you could share the correspondence of that email here...

noreply@evernote.com …. and they got it, there was no reply 😉

Just that option ?! We pay for a product that doesn't have the basic feature of a note taking app. Any free/open source project supports multi language spellcheck. Ridiculous!

1. Stop paying and move on.
2. Send feedback, and hope for a modification.
3. Issue a support ticket, and hope for a fix.

That covers it all, I think. Actually EN is not the only app I have that just works by using what is installed in the OS. Since you claim that „Any“ other app would support it, your post is already proven wrong.

Here are many users who would be happy about an improved language support. What I think we don’t need is the „support“ of somebody who uses silly, easy to falsicate arguments to promote a good cause. This is no help, thanks for nothing.
