the red misspell underlining .. it works most everywhere else on my Note 3 and Tab s2

but not in Chrome :/ or other browsers for that matter

like this text area ..

why not?

I am sure it is an issue for many ..

what is the solution around it? (short of cut - paste into some notepad application .. correct it .. and paste back .. )

any other thoughts .. advice?

thank you ..

Um... You may not be aware of this, but when you type the phone IT'S SELF spell checks!

Yea, and it sucks. I want it to work like the desktop where misspellings are highlighted, and a long push on the word gives you the choice to correct, or add to the dictionary.

Did you turn autocorrect off on your Note 3? Mine works - it doesn't need the red underlining.

really

your spell check works via your keyboard right?
what keyboard? google? samsung?

screenshot it please..

so if you miss to correct a word .. it will not underline it to remind you?
