Autocorrect and the IOS extension

So, this may be just a user error and I apologize wasting anyone’s time if it is, but I was simply wondering if it was possibly to add/enable autocorrect to the IOS extension of wolfery, it isn’t often I use my phone for wolfery but when I do, I find myself making errors that I fail to see as they don’t appear as mistakes nor does my autocorrect work whatsoever. I am just curious if there is a way to enable this feature or if it may be added as a small quality of life change in the future.

Oh, so spellchecking isn’t working on IOS? Good to know! :slight_smile:

The spellchecking feature is built in and handled by the web browser. And even if you “install” Wolfery as an app, it will still run on the web browser engine - on IOS, that means WebKit.

And after looking it up, I found the issue being this:

Because we use CodeMirror for the editor (to get nice colors and tab completion and such), Safari fails to do spellchecking.

Hm… I am near illiterate with technical babble but reading through the link makes it look like there is no easy solution and well, it’s not a big enough of a problem to actually need to put work into in my opinion. I guess I will just misspell a little more often while on mobile xD

I remember that spellchecker actually worked in wolfery up until the addition of the dedicated mobile overlay. Then it just stopped working.
