Check your English in WhatsApp, before you hit send.

Yes, you can grammar check WhatsApp messages on Android without copying them anywhere. Lingently floats over WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business. Type your message, tap the character, and the corrected message goes straight back into the chat, with a one-line reason for each fix. You keep your own keyboard.

Why WhatsApp is where the mistakes happen

WhatsApp is fast. You reply to your boss between meetings, to a landlord from the bus, to a new friend late at night. There is no time to copy the text into a grammar checker, and the keyboard's red lines only catch spelling. "I am agree", "I have 30 years" and "we can discuss about it" are spelled correctly, so they go straight through.

Lingently works inside the chat. You write your message the way you always do. When you want a check, you tap the character at the edge of the screen.

How it works in WhatsApp

1. Type your message in any chat or group, in WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business.
2. Tap the character. Lingently reads the text field you're typing in, and only that field, only when you tap.
3. See the fixes. Each mistake is struck through and corrected, with a one-line reason: "agree" is a verb in English, so you don't need "am".
4. Tap Replace. The corrected message goes straight back into WhatsApp. Then you send it.

On Pro you can also change the tone: more formal for a message to your manager, friendlier for a group chat, or shorter when you wrote too much. More on the tone checker page.

Messages it fixes every day

Grammarly for WhatsApp, or Lingently?

Both work in WhatsApp on Android. Checked on 18 October 2026: Grammarly's Android guide describes a floating widget that suggests fixes as you type, in English. If you want every word checked live and you only write in English, that suits you.

Lingently checks when you tap, looks at the whole message at once, and explains each fix in one line. It checks English, Spanish, French, German and Portuguese, and it turns your mistakes into practice. It's built for people who write in English as a second language. The full comparison is on Lingently vs Grammarly.

Learn from your own messages

Every fix is saved for practice. A few minutes a day, Lingently asks you to redo your own sentences, so the mistake you made in a WhatsApp message on Monday is the one you fix for good by Friday. You also see your patterns: which mistakes keep coming back, and which ones you've beaten.
