How it works
- You type a message in any app, with your own keyboard.
- You tap the floating character. Lingently reads that text field, and only when you tap.
- Each mistake is struck through and corrected, with a one-line reason. You tap Replace and the text goes back into the app.
It also works from selected text, from the Android Share menu, and on the Write screen inside the app.
Where it works
Most Android apps where you type, including WhatsApp, WhatsApp Business, Gmail, Slack, Messenger, LinkedIn and the browser. If an app blocks it, the Write screen inside Lingently works instead.

Who it's for
People who write every day in a language that isn't their first: messages to a manager on WhatsApp, emails to a client or landlord, LinkedIn posts, job applications. It's built around the mistakes that come from translating your first language, such as "I am agree" (I agree) or "I have 30 years" (I'm 30).
